Rush Hour Resistance over I-84
Join Indivisible Oregon for an Overpass Action on I-84!
We’re making a bold, visible stand to defend our democracy and push back against the Trump regime's authoritarian and unconstitutional actions. During peak commuting hours, we’ll raise our message boards over I-84 at the Blumenauer Pedestrian and Bike bridge to show that our community is awake, united, and ready to fight for what’s right.
Help us make our message loud and clear!
Bring your energy—and a sign if you’d like—as we spell out bold, 2-foot-tall messages for passing cars. We’ll wave, connect, and chat for about 90 minutes during rush hour. It’s an easy, fun way to amplify our message and meet fellow activists.
Join us and make your voice "seen."

Deep Canvassing Training - Canvassing with Empathy
INDIVISIBLE OREGON and INDIVISIBLE CEDAR MILL are partnering with SWING LEFT to conduct comprehensive and experiential trainings in “Deep Canvassing” or “Canvassing with Empathy”. The training will be followed by an actual canvass with voters in Oregon’s Congressional District 5. Our goal is to encourage voters to tell us what issues are most important to them. This information is critical in helping Members of Congress better understand their constituents’ most important concerns as they are making policy decisions in Washington D.C. Additionally, this data will help 2026 electoral candidates in swing districts shape campaign messages that address voters in more meaningful and effective ways.
Deep canvassing is a method of voter outreach that involves having authentic, empathic conversations with individuals about how they want government to serve them. Unlike traditional canvassing, which uses a script designed to persuade voters to support a candidate or cause, deep canvassing fosters a more in-depth and genuine way of connecting with voters. The ultimate goal is to build a sincere relationship with voters by nonjudgmentally understanding their values, beliefs, and experiences rather than just gathering data through short conversations.
Participants will also learn about new approaches to canvassing developed by Swing Left, called "Ground Truth".
This is a 2-hour training, followed by one hour of canvassing. An additional hour is allowed for downloading “turfs”, explaining the “MiniVAN” app, driving to the canvassing locations and then returning to debrief. Afterward, trainees will be able to canvass on their own, or with a buddy, as often as they choose. Canvassing events will be scheduled regularly throughout June – November, 2025.

We Say NO KINGS!
In America, we don’t put up with would-be kings. And here in Oregon, we say No Military Takeover of Our Communities.
Hosted by 50501 and Indivisible groups from all over the Portland Metro
Joyful Warriors – It’s Time to Mobilize! Defend democracy! Stop Tyranny in its tracks! End the Abuse of Power! Organize for the future we demand!
Our peaceful movement is only getting bigger and stronger. “NO KINGS” is more than just a slogan—it’s the foundation our nation was built upon. Born in the streets, carried by millions in chants and on posters, it echoes from city blocks to rural town squares, uniting people across this country to fight dictatorship together.
Come together from every corner of the Metro as One Nation Indivisible at Waterfront Park. Add your voice to protect our Rights and our Freedoms
We are democracy’s defenders. We are The People! We are everywhere! We come together from every direction, across the bridges and down the streets – With music, marching, flags, songs and chants.
March In - 11am
Bring your friends, your co-workers, your community. Wear your team colors, carry your signs and represent your cause. From Pioneer Courthouse Square (SW), Convention Ctr Plaza (NE) and (SE) over Hawthorne Bridge. ALL GRAND ENTRY MARCHES WILL STEP OFF AT 11 AM.

Grand March - 1pm
We proclaim No Kings! Shoulder to Shoulder, In Solidarity. Our One Nation Indivisible Grand March will step off onto the Downtown Portland route at 1pm.
All of us in 50501 and Indivisible are committed to non-violence as a guiding principle in everything we do. We expect all participants to seek to de-escalate any potential confrontation with those who disagree with our values.
Non-violence doesn’t mean backing down. It means standing firm in our values, channeling our anger and our hope into action, and refusing to become what we’re fighting against. We are up against a movement that feeds on fear and chaos. Our answer is a movement grounded in courage, solidarity, and the unshakable belief that a better, more just democracy is worth fighting for—together.
No Troops in Portland
Good news - we won the fight to get Sinclair to reinstate its broadcast of Jimmy Kimmel Live, so our "Hello Sinclair" protests are canceled.
Bad news - Trump has ordered the deployment of troops to our city and we are determined to peacefully stand-up to this authoritarian tactic, so the protests are back on. Same place, same time, different violation of our freedoms.
This location is easily reached by Trimet buslines 12, 19, and 20. On-street parking in the neighborhood.
Every Tuesday 4-6pm. Hosted by Portland District 2 Neighbors Indivisible.
