Join in packing the court at noon on Wednesday February 7th at the Eugene Community Court (338 W 11th Ave) to show support for those who were unjustly swept and ticketed!
Housing not sweeps!
Wear red!
(Many people think of Eugene as this progressive haven for unhoused people, but local politicians have joined in the recent game of "to comply with court decisions restricting sweeps we're passing a law that lets us do lots of sweeps.")

Tabletop Gaming Event here in Eugene!
So tomorrow (as of when I'm posting this) there's going to be a tabletop gaming and fantasy focused holiday market over at Funagain Games. Figured I'd bring it up here since I only found out about it when I saw a poster around town.

Anyone know when the High Street Protected Bikeway might open?
I've been highly anticipating it ever since construction began, and it looks nearly finished to me. This would make so many trips much easier!

ONA is conducting a letter writing campaign to draw attention to the hospital closure.
Folks of #Eugene and @eugene: Our only hospital on this side of the river is closing. The ER's last day is set to be Dec. 1. The Oregon Nurses Association has started this letter writing campaign to hopefully draw the attention of the OHA and Governor.
Please consider sending, even if just the pre-prepared form letter. https://actionnetwork.org/letters/save-eugenes-hospital
Save Eugene's Hospital
PeaceHealth is attempting to close Eugene's only hospital--PeaceHealth Sacred Heart Medical Center University District. This dangerous decision would leave nearly 200,000 residents with no hospital in Oregon’s 2nd largest city.actionnetwork.org
A person driving a truck with right-wing stickers pulled a "splatter ball gun" on pro-Palestine protesters at a rally. Several armed rally goers pulled their own weapons, and forced the person to drop their weapon and also remove their mask.
"Two individuals within the march rushed to the front, drew their own handguns, and ordered the man to immediately drop his weapon and take off his mask to which he complied. After doing so, he took his mask off. As the two individuals kicked the now-unmasked man’s weapon away,"
