I hope you and your family are safe and healthy. We’ve been through a lot this year.
Oregon is in a time of flux. Some are working to build a better Oregon and some capitalizing on divisiveness. #orpol
I’ve always believed politics should be about working together to overcome our challenges, not the pettiness that’s now common.
As a rural Oregonian, I recognize my interdependence on my neighbors. It is time to bridge divides, build relationships, & develop #rural leaders.
The painful fact is that the political establishment has demonstrated a fundamental lack of understanding of rural areas and has failed to invest in developing rural leaders. This lack of support hurts all rural communities, especially rural BIPOC Oregonians. #orpol#Oregon
