  7. Join Portland Jobs with Justice's Portland Rising committee as we begin to apply the lessons from Minneapolis to our own city. This will be an opportunity for strategizing and exploring the power of coalition.

    This free in-person event is the second in a series of workshops exploring how workers and community members can organize bold, strategic actions to fight for better wages, working conditions, and local policy changes. We’ll build on the previous session by thinking about the opportunities for building a broad coalition to win together here in Portland. Join us for an engaging conversation and help shape the future of class struggle in our city!
