The rent is too damn high

  We’ll say it — the rent is too damn high, John! Safe, affordable housing is out of reach for too many Oregonians. We see it every day in our communities. Tina’s got a plan for that — because she knows that we simply all do better when we have a safe place to call home. She is the…

Oregon has a choice to make

  John, We have a choice this November: elect a governor who will drag Oregon backward, or elect a governor who will move the state forward and will always put people first. Can you rush a donation to help Oregonians get this critical information and elect Tina? There’s so much on…
