This was in honor of all the members of the Black community who have lost their lives in the hands of the police, said King Ryan, executive director of Uptlift Kalamazoo.
âWeâre not here to protest for George Floyd, or Breonna Taylor, or Daunte Wright or Philando Castile,â Ryan said. âWeâre here to protest against all the Black people whose names we donât know.â
BEND â Oregonâs U.S. senators have proposed an enormous conservation package that would shield thousands of miles of the stateâs rivers from development.
Sens. Ron Wyden and Jeff Merkley, both Democrats, on Wednesday, Feb. 3, announced the River Democracy Act of 2021, which would add nearly 4,700 miles of Oregon rivers and streams to the National Wild and Scenic Rivers system.
The bill would nearly triple the total number of river miles with Wild and Scenic protections in Oregon and includes waterways in almost every part of the state. It would also expand the amount of land protected in Wild and Scenic River corridors from a quarter-mile on both sides of the river to a half-mile.
