Food Bites for Rights

It’s Bites for Rights time again! Y’all know the drill: Eat at any participating restaurant today, and 15% of the proceeds go to Basic Rights Oregon. BRO were instrumental in passing the non-discrimination and domestic partnership bills this year, and they could use some cash to fend off the referendum effort that could kill both of those laws. And what better way to help them fluff the coffers than by stuffing your face?

Participating restaurants include Higgins, West Cafe, Byways, Escape from New York, Mint/820, and oh so many more (full list here).

I’ve already had tea and a muffin at Floyd’s today, so that’s, let’s see… sixty cents! You can thank me later, BRO.

The subject line of Basic Rights Oregon's email was "Eat Out All Day Long and Support Equality!"

I laughed and laughed and laaaaaughed.

We're thanking you right now!

Hey, you're welcome!

Floyd's!

Supporting two causes at once...Perhaps I saw you there.
