Whatever is True and Noble
Often I hear folks who are discouraged by the negativity they hear around them. We certainly can't ignore the problems we are facing, such as challenges with affordability of housing, climate change, and workforce retention and development, particularly in healthcare. I am working hard with my colleagues in the legislature and in other parts of government to try to address these issues as best we can.
When I am out talking with people in the community, knocking on doors and attending community events, I am always struck by the generosity of spirit of those people who are willing to talk with me about the issues we are facing, and the commitment to community that so many share. So, I focus on these true and noble things, and look forward to continuing to work with you for an Oregon that works for everyone!
