I have called Portland home since 1992, and if I've learned one truth about Portlanders it's this: We are creative and independent people. We take care of our neighbors, lift each other up, and love our time outdoors. But that doesn't mean things are always easy.

Our city is in a downward spiral. Housing is too damn expensive. Houselessness is endemic. We don't have a strong safety net for people who are struggling, and people don't feel safe. We are better than this.

I am running for Portland City Council in District 2 because we need new city leadership; leadership rooted in community, grounded in good government, and driven by our progressive values.

Our movement is powered by small-dollar donations from members of our community. Can I count on you to join our movement and help us build a better future for our city?

DONATE NOW

We all want to feel proud when we say we are from Portland. It is our home. As your city council member, I will represent each and every one of us — our needs, hopes, and worries — and I will work with you to make Portland a place where everyone can live, work, and play together.

I have a little bit of hope for our future because I believe in Portlanders and the power of democracy. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. said, "The time is always right to do what is right." The time is now.

Gratefully,
