STRONG Salem is for everyone who wants to help and participate in getting Salem, Oregon, to quit chasing Growth Ponzi Scheme plans and instead become a resilient, fiscally responsible place that lives by the wisdom that "Communities exist for the health and enjoyment of those who live in them, not for the convenience of those who drive through them, fly over them, or exploit their real estate for profit."

WORD: If you want lower taxes and a better state, listen up! (Oregon Out of Balance)
This group, Partnership for Safety and Justice, is invaluable. Spending on prisons is THE budget issue for at least the next 20 years. And it boils down to this: are we going to spend ourselves broke on policies that we know only fuel the crime and incarceration cycle, or will we support public officials who dare stand up and put out that the prison Emperor is not only buck naked, but is also stealing our future?
