Climate justice is the issue of our lifetimes. Currently, there is no climate justice champion on the Multnomah County Board of Commissioners. I will be the Climate Justice Commissioner. I am proud to have the endorsement of the @sierraclub.org @sunrisepdx.bsky.social and @olcv.org

Oregon is failing our young people and future generations by slowing progress toward a clean economy. People want to make the right choice, but the systems now don't help us get off fossil fuels fast enough. Disasters like the deadly heat dome will keep happening unless we show more leadership.
