Councilor Elana Pirtle-Guiney @councilorepg.bsky.social · 02/10/2026

Experts and advocates have been sounding the alarm on CEI Hub for years, demanding across Districts that Council legislate actionable steps to prevent unimaginable harm. Our amendment package delivers the exact kind of representative action our new form of government was designed for.

We know young people sometimes feel like their voices are drowned out as we debate the future that they’ll live with, so we created a dedicated space to talk about the topics that matter most to young Portlanders. Join us TOMORROW!

This resolution is about economic opportunity for our future. It's about job density. It's about transparency. And it is only the first step. 🧵4/4

Councilor Elana Pirtle-Guiney @councilorepg.bsky.social · 17/09/2026

The resolution passed unanimously at Council last night, and came forward as at least 10 sites within Portland city limits have been identified as capable of accommodating a hyperscale data center, with NDAs between data center developers and local governments being widespread nationally. 🧵3/4

Councilor Elana Pirtle-Guiney @councilorepg.bsky.social · 17/09/2026

I was proud to be an early co-sponsor of a resolution urging the City Administrator to refrain from signing data center non-disclosure agreements (NDAs) and to pursue a moratorium or zoning restrictions on all hyperscale data centers. 🧵2/4

Portlanders want good-paying jobs, not data centers. These facilities don't meet Portland's environmental and community values, and the data shows they do not produce the long-term, high-wage employment opportunities our city needs. 🧵1/4

Gun violence among youth is preventable. I want every Portlander to know that my office will continue to prioritize investing in violence intervention, community-building and opportunities for our youth, and a Portland where everyone feels — and IS — safe.

Councilor Elana Pirtle-Guiney @councilorepg.bsky.social · 06/08/2026

Over the weekend, Portland saw multiple acts of senseless gun violence across the city. Here in District 2, my heart is with the family of 18-year-old Terrell J. Granberg — who was killed in the Cully neighborhood — as well as with the five young people who were injured in the same incident.

A centralized place for rideshare drivers to access employment-related resources will offer the support they need to succeed, stabilizing the rideshare workforce — and, as a result, the transportation system we ALL rely on. I am so proud that we received widespread support for this critical policy.

While this budget process didn’t preserve everything I fought for, I am reminded every day of the Portland I am working towards – one where families thrive, and everyone who works here can afford to live here – and the value of showing up each day to make this vision a reality.

Councilor Elana Pirtle-Guiney @councilorepg.bsky.social · 18/06/2026

I came into this budget process with must-dos. To fight for working families. To preserve the promises we made to voters in the Parks Levy. To identify pathways to compromise that move our City forward while budgeting responsibly. I followed through on each of these commitments.

With about a week to go before we vote to adopt the final budget, I already know we'll have plenty to discuss. This is a chance for you to ask questions about this year’s budget cycle and how the decisions we made will inform what the coming fiscal year is going to look like.

Unfortunately the vote that ultimately funded the station was while I was in transit. While I brought multiple proposals to fund the station as well, ultimately I’m just glad we found a path that enough Councilors could agree on to get it done!

Funding Station 22 was a must-do in the budget and I was prepared to oppose the budget if it was not included. I shared with my colleagues during last month’s budget cycle that my wife was recovering from surgery and I would need to take portions of each meeting remotely to care for her.
