but @AOC & some of her colleagues refused to attend this state visit for this revolting dictator

“a state visit expresses special diplomatic regard. This, combined with the pomp and praise, is revolting and insulting to everyone engaged in fighting the global far right”

Portland Planning Board chair renting apartment on Airbnb amid housing crisis

by Troy R. Bennett, Bangor Daily News, Wed, March 22nd 2023,

"While completely legal, some say it’s a bad look for a powerful city official, especially during an unprecedented affordable housing crisis.

"Planning Board Chair Maggie Stanley is renting the first-floor Woodfords Corner neighborhood apartment for $103 per night or up to $3,000 per month. Stanley’s long-term housing license at the property ran out at the end of last year and was not renewed, according to city records.

"'Walking distance to coffee shops, restaurants, and Back Cove,' reads the online listing. 'Access to shared yard, fire pit and grill. Ask about going for a ride in our lobster boat!'

"Stanley has been on the Planning Board since Feb. 2016. The board reviews and decides on all major development proposals in Portland.

"'It shows exactly where we are as a community,' said Wes Pelletier, former chair of the Livable Portland Campaign. 'City officials see housing not as a human right but as a way to make profits.'

"The campaign was an offshoot of the Maine chapter of the of America and sought, among other things, to reduce the number of short-term rentals in Portland. The referendum for that particular measure didn’t pass."

Class: The NPEC Podcast
education.dsausa.org/class-the

Class is the official podcast of the National Political Education Committee of the of America. We believe working people should run both the economy and society democratically to meet human needs, not to make profits for a few. Class is a podcast where we ask about why they are socialists, what socialism looks like, and how we, as the working class, can become the ruling class.
