SEIU Local 49 Endorses Me For Mayor!

I’m thrilled and beyond grateful to announce that SEIU Local 49, the voice for over 15,000 working people across our city, has officially endorsed my campaign for Mayor of Portland!

SEIU’s commitment to fighting for better wages, better working conditions, and a better community for healthcare and building service workers is something I deeply respect, and together, we’ll continue building a city that prioritizes fairness, opportunity, and dignity for all workers.

I have been a strong and consistent supporter of our unions during my time on council. I have converted contract positions into full-time union jobs, and saved over 100 positions by closing PBOT’s $32 million budget gap.

The future is going to be built on strong union partnerships.

Thank you to SEIU Local 49 for believing in my vision for Portland. Let’s get to work to create a city that works for everyone!
