Thank you, Rep. @karin_power for the #MothersDay well wishes! Wishing the same to you and all of the incredible moms running for office locally 💪 facebook.com/watch/?v=25655…
"[Sarah] and I first met when she organized a pop-up homeless shelter during one of our worst winter storms that we had— that's the kind of person she is." — @karin_power #VoteLikeAMother #MomsInOffice
"The community spirit [Sarah's] going to bring running the city of Portland, the collaboration, and the way she calls on us to be our best selves in public service I think will be truly transformative in the city." — @karin_power #VoteLikeAMother #MomsInOffice

We have decided to go to bed tonight, let the results continue to roll in, and make sure that every vote is counted in this election. As Vice President Biden said tonight, 'it ain't over until every vote is counted.'
Ted Wheeler and I share a belief in democracy, in listening to the will of the voters. Despite the heated rhetoric of this campaign, I believe Ted Wheeler is a good human being, and I believe history will remember his many good works as Mayor, even as he has admitted failings.
If Ted wins, we will continue to hold Mayor Wheeler accountable, because we are a city that demands forward progress on the issues of our time, no matter who is in power.

Today, our campaign released a policy on Disability Justice, a set of proposals and commitments to advance civil and human rights for people with disabilities. The full proposal is now online sarah2020.com/en/policies/di…
To create the policy, disabled activists were consulted and compensated for their work to develop a policy that reflects the needs of the disability community, the values of our campaign for Portland mayor, and her commitments to the community once elected.
Policy authors Allen Hines and Nico Serra said, “It has been a true honor to collaborate with Sarah Iannarone and her staff to create this document. We worked with about 30 people with disabilities to develop it. …

This Indigenous People’s Day, let’s remember that our city exists on the unceded lands of the Multnomah Chinook, Clackamas, Cowlitz, Cow Creek, Siuslaw, Umpqua, and countless other nations who have been on these lands since time immemorial. Native people are still here.
The reality of colonization is that it is ongoing. Native people are the most over-policed of any racial group in the US. When we talk about Rethinking Public Safety, we must ensure Indigenous people are not targets of police violence.
But local law enforcement is not the only concern of Indigenous communities. We must remember that refugees and immigrants crossing the southern US border are Indigenous. The horrors they face in ICE camps and prisons, and targeting by Border Patrol, are issues we must address.

The attacks on the @PDXArtMuseum and @OrHist were wrong-headed. Public access to art is vital to our city’s cultural fabric. I condemn all acts of violence and destruction, especially those targeting museums and public art.
As your next Mayor, I’m ready to move this city forward, from rethinking public safety to changing place names and removing statues. If someone would like a statue removed, they can engage our public process to register that complaint and I’ll push City Council to listen and act
Our systems of government have long ignored problematic symbols and impacts of institutional racism, I am committed to changing that as mayor. People are hurting and that pain is valid.
