Rabblerousing for housing as a human right. We fight for abundant homes affordable to rent & buy at every income level, tenants' rights and shelter for all.
“Leaders have to bring forward solutions. People who are sleeping outside, people who struggle to afford housing, and everyone concerned about our houseless neighbors aren’t served by obstructionist infighting.” - @GovTinaKotekwweek.com/news/city/2024/10/…

Q: Out of 100 candidates for Portland council, which one (1) got endorsements from all four citywide newspapers?
A: @candaceforpdx, bringing the people together :)

.@thecolumbian reports that the massive $7 billion highway project that is the Interstate Bridge Replacement will bulldoze 43 homes and 33 businesses to widen I-5 through Vancouver and North Portland.

Rene’s reign over Portland Street Response has been a disaster. As Mayor, he would represent an existential threat to the future of Portland Street Response. #SavePSR
That’s why we are supporting @DontRankRene
