YOUR Voice for Southwest Oregon
As a concerned citizen, and through my service and activism as Chair of the Curry County Democratic Party, I volunteer most of my time working to develop and improve communications and knowledge of issues with my fellow citizens.
Listening to the concerns and ideas of ALL constituents is how we will build community and find sustainable solutions to the challenges facing District 1.
As your next District 1 Representative, I pledge to:
Provide annual in-person town hall meetings in each of Coos, Curry and Douglas counties. In a representative democracy, representatives must personally engage with constituents. Occasional newsletters are insufficient communication.
Protect Women’s Rights and Freedoms to Abortion & Reproductive Care, IVF and Contraception.
Support, secure and improve Oregon’s Vote-By-Mail system, making voting accessible to ALL eligible Oregonians.
As your Representative, I will devote myself full-time to community building, policy making and public service. Together, we can face the challenges before us and find solutions to issues that are important to District 1 citizens:
FREEDOMS & PROTECTIONS
