Another engaged audience at the Sanctuary Matters Forum. Councilors and audience took a deep dive to talk about standing up for our neighbors and community members looking to minimize damage from ICE. We’ll look for video links to share. Very substantive.

“I am definitely looking for elected leaders who are doing the work. I would rather have someone who has a track record of getting policies passed that uplift some of our equity-priority communities over someone who is at every event and will answer my phone call in two seconds.” Link in comments.

I support a moratorium on new data center development in Oregon until they no longer drive up utility rates, undermine clean energy for other users, damage our clean water and air, or shortchange union jobs.

portlandmercury.comMeet the Candidates For City Council District 4 - Portland MercuryCity Council District 4 encompasses most of Northwest and Southwest Portland, as well as a swath of Southeast from Macadam Avenue to Campesinos Boulevard (recently renamed from Cesar E. Chavez Blvd). ...

Portland City Council District 4: 12 candidates, 3 seats. Four of them have pulled in these amounts in Small Donor Elections matching funds: $200,000 — $178,330 — $162,401 — $88,100. Guess who's who before we reveal. 1/6 🧵 www.portlandmercury.com/news/meet-th...

Disclosure: TJ Anderson, also running in D4, volunteers with MultDems. We're not endorsing anyone in this thread — just laying out the money in the race so our community has a snapshot. 5/6 🧵

D4 covers NW & SW Portland plus part of SE. With this much money and this many candidates, it's worth doing your own homework before you rank your ballot. h/t @portlandmercury for the candidate profiles. BALLOTS DROP OCT 14 #MultDems #orpol #Portland #OregonVotes

And the $200,000? That's challenger Eli Arnold — a former PPB officer who served on the riot response squad during Portland's 2020 racial justice protests. He's outraised all three incumbents. Endorsements include Portland Police Association, Go Portland Go, and the DA. 3/6 🧵

The next tier of D4 small donor fundraising: Jeremy Beausoleil Smith ($84,150), Jamey Evenstar ($52,610), Jayne Cronlund ($41,520). Worth noting — these are Small Donor matching funds only. Candidates can also raise larger individual contributions outside the program. 4/6 🧵

Three of those numbers belong to the incumbents, all running again: * Olivia Clark: $178,330 * Mitch Green: $162,401 * Eric Zimmerman: $88,100 Source: Portland's Small Donor Elections program 2/6 🧵 www.portland.gov/smalldonorel...

Oregonians went to the movies and were forced to watch a President Trump propaganda video instead of trailers. In Oregon, we know the difference between supporting our military and a MAGA campaign ad. I will always fight to keep federal intimidation out of our communities.
