Taking Action Against the TPP, TAFTA and TISA

Alliance for Democracy banner

Informing and energizing the public

Join the Alliance for Democracy in Portland for twice a week banner and sign holding. We will gather on Tuesdays and Fridays at different bridge heads or major street intersections to spread the word that the TPP and Fast Track Authority are coming at them fast and that we need to rise our voices.

Until further notice, our actions will be on Tuesday and Fridays. On Tuesdays, we start at 2:30 PM. On Fridays, we start at 4 PM.

Location: East end of the Burnside Bridge where Wentworh Subaru is.
What to bring: We will have the banner (as above) plus a few signs.

Each week I will send an email reminder out with locations. To join the list, please send an email to davidafd@ymail.com.

Changes to above schedule

Friday, August 26 - CANCELLED due to heat.

CALL CONGRESS!

Call your US Senators and Representatives. Demand that they oppose the Trans Pacific Partnership and that it not be voted on this year.

Oregon Senator Merkley has already expressed his opposition as has Rep. DeFazio.

Oregon Senator Wyden as well as Representatives Blumenauer, Bonamici, and Schrader remain uncommitted.

Call them now (and again next week). Call them on the Congress phone line and ask for the person you want to speak with: 202.224.3121. Or look up their office numbers directly here.

The Anti-TPP Light Brigade.

4-16. This will only happen on cloudy, overcast days. Otherwise, the sun is too bright and drowns out the lights.

Once a week the Alliance for Democracy and friends will raise awareness of the TPP by mobilizing the LIGHT BRIGADE with signs that spell No TPP and/or STOP TPP. You are welcome to join us.

Our schedule:
We will gather on either Thursday or Friday each week. Please join the email list for notification each week

Location: East End of the Burnside Bridge in front of the auto dealer showroom at E. Burnside and Martin Luther King Blvd. At 5:30, we will go onto the bridge overlooking I-5.
