Effective Leadership
Empowering People
“I have spent my career working in local, regional, and state governments building coalitions to address urgent issues, from affordable housing to transportation, economic recovery and job creation.
Yet for all the hard work here in our Oregon communities, Congress is not doing its part– ideological politicians are more intent on culture wars than helping working people, more interested in rolling back fundamental rights than protecting our small cities and rural communities.”
– Lynn
Republicans have nominated Jim Jordan for Speaker, who voted to overturn the 2020 election, defended the criminals who attacked the Capitol on January 6th, and is in favor of an extreme agenda to ban abortion nationwide, cut veteran benefits by 22%, eliminate health insurance for 21 million Americans, and fire 108,000 school teachers and aides. Those are not the values we hold in Oregon's 5th Congressional District.
Will Rep. Lori Chavez-DeRemer rubber-stamp the nihilistic MAGA agenda and vote to put the extreme-right Freedom Caucus in charge? Time will tell. Her constituents will be watching.
