Absurd Money Lust Kitty

 'The Metro supportive housing services tax, approved by voters in 2020, pays for programs that  

help move people experiencing homelessness into housing  

— and keep people from becoming homeless — 

 in Multnomah, Clackamas and Washington counties.  

That can include eviction defense,.

 rent assistance,  

behavioral health programs, .

job training, 

 or help retrieving legal documents that may be lost, 

 among other services.  

It’s not meant to pay for new housing construction  

nor for the cost of buying buildings to turn into housing."

Buy and convert Office space to Free Housing for qualified houseless and poverty level families. 


Buy Motels. 


Buy trailers and immediately help current houseless, residents houseless from Portland for over say 3 years, 5 years, 10, 20, 30 years. 


There's Money but too many undecideds and lobbyists and vested interest. 


Follow thru on the dozens of empty promises. 


To hell with Sam Adams, Dan Ryan, Mayor Wheeler, Rene Gonzalez and the chamber of commerce, the Portland Business Alliance, People for  Portland , Knight Schnitzer Goodman Boyle etc etc 

To hell with Consultants pushing endless condo development. 


Help the houseless immediately. 


A dearth of action on broken promises on top of trickle up Fraud....reallocate your genius to Idaho or California.
