Why should Portland vote for me? Let's break it down.

plus PSU Professor Dr. Roberta Hunte, and hundreds of other community leaders. I've got the backing of Our Revolution, The Street Trust, Honest Elections Oregon, Portland Clean Air, and Portland Tenants United. sarah2020.com/endorsements
We are two days from our biggest fundraising deadline ever. September is the last full month of OAE’s 600% match on Portland donations. Only two weeks of public match remain! Can you contribute any amount $5-$250 to help us reach more voters? sarah2020.com/donate
As a reminder, your first $50 in the general is matched 600% by Portland’s groundbreaking public finance laws - Open and Accountable Elections. The only way this race has been competitive is because we have our grassroots donor power amplified by this amazing program.
Most elections are determined by whoever has the most money. Open and Accountable Elections rewrites the rulebook. Our opponent is mostly taking massive checks from downtown - our donors are all over Portland and average ~$38. To win, we need everyone to give anything they can!
Today I received the endorsement of Former Multnomah County Commissioner Loretta Smith and many other leaders in our community. I am honored to have the support of Commissioner Smith and look forward to continuing to build this coalition.

With trees down around the city, and power going out for many of our neighbors last night, we should all hope that EMTs can reach those in need, that elders in need of AC stay cool, and that people who need oxygen have battery-powered backup.
Portland is living through several concurrent disasters. Our preparation level was inadequate before COVID and not enough progress has been made to protect our children from the next crisis, whatever it may be.
Disaster response & climate resilience are linked. We must build local solar energy infrastructure to meet carbon goals, but also because community-located energy systems are far more resilient in inclement weather events like last night. sarah2020.com/greennewdeal
Happy Labor Day from #TeamSarah! Today, we celebrate the working people who make our society run and provide for all of us. Workers have won many rights throughout history through organizing and using their collective voice.
As Mayor, I will fight for family-wage, union jobs to rebuild our city's economy better than before. Workers continue to fight for the right to organize and bargain for better wages and working conditions.
Today I hope you'll take some time to learn more about the modern labor struggle, and enjoy the sunshine!
