The Oregon legislature convened today for a one-month special session to address the state’s three hundred million dollar budget deficit.
Occupy Wall Street activists from around the state marked the occasion by gathering at the State Capitol in Salem for a day of rallies, workshops and meetings with legislators.
One focus of this day of action is tax reform in Oregon.
Currently, many corporations in the state pay only a ten dollar minimum tax, even when their profits in the state are in the tens or hundreds of millions.
Kirk Leonard with Occupy Salem spoke to KBOO from inside the state capitol

As the US Congress prepares to vote on a defense budget next week, Republican lawmakers have been very vocal in opposing what they say are cuts to the military.
But the so-called cuts are actually an increase over last year’s budget, and so are not actually budget cuts at all.
KBOO’s Jenka Soderberg spoke with Rebecca Griffin, Political Director of the activist group Peace Action West, about the proposed Pentagon and military budget.

The City Council of Portland approved a substitute resolution this morning requiring police officers to pass an actual physical fitness test to qualify for a health premium.
The Oregonian reported last month that nearly all Portland Police Bureau officers received an annual pay premium for undergoing a brief medical screening rather than passing an obstacle course.
Although the resolution was discussed in mid-January, the council delayed action until Mayor Sam Adams could return from a trip to washington D.C.

Rev Graylan Hagler at the Occupy DC High Noon Showdown
The Occupy DC camps were both given notice to comply with anti Camping laws by noon Monday 1-30-12 or face enforcement of those laws. The Occupy Freedom Plaza camp openly agreed to comply while the McPherson Square camp consolidated their tents under an enormous tarp stretched over the Square's statue of McPherson and awaited the Park Police's response. The Police did a couple of walk through during the day but made no attempt at enforcing any laws because several hundred additional supporters and media peoople descended on the camp. This morning the police came through and offered to negotiate if the "new" tarp was taken down voluntarily. The McPherson camp will hold an emergency GA today to decide their next move. The Tent Monster and Reverend Graylan Hagler of the Occupy Faith Ministries came out to support the camp also. Mo'Fo' ~ occupydc.org ~ http
