Sanctuary

July 30, 2018 • Russell Sanders • Season 1 • Episode 4

Oregon’s union movement stands united against Ballot Measure 105, which would throw out Oregon’s existing “sanctuary” law. This law passed with strong bipartisan support and has been protecting Oregonians from unfair racial profiling for more than 30 years. On this episode, we sit down with the people leading the fight to protect sanctuary across the state of Oregon.
