I believe in our Citizen Legislature and work to bring people together from diverse backgrounds to solve Oregon’s problems. I try to never forget where I came from or who I was elected to serve: working families, kids, seniors and small business people who don’t have lobbyists. I’m proud to be your voice, and to continue that service I need your help on my campaign.

But before I ask for your help, let me show you who you’ll be helping. Since you first elected me in 2006, I’ve been fighting for the issues below and for many others. These are just a few examples of my progressive values and of the legislation I have worked on.

MCDCC Bylaws Committee is offering a Q & A about our new bylaws on Sunday, August 23rd, 3:00pm - 4:00pm. Please register in advance for this virtual meeting.

This meeting is NOT for bylaw revisions. This meeting is designed to answer questions members may have about the proposed bylaws which is on our August agenda for adoption that have been revised by the membership over a nearly year-long process. If you have questions about this meeting please contact our Bylaws Committee Chair, Keri Capen.

You can download the bylaws here.

Come join our Fundraising Committee and learn or share your talents as we redesign this year's Monroe Sweetland Dinner from a sit-down formal dinner to a virtual event.

We especially need help in securing auction items. If you can help make calls or have items to donate please contact our committee at fundraising@mariondemocrats.org.

Do you know someone that would like to receive information about MCDCC happenings and news but does not have access to the internet to receive email?

We strive to include all Democrats that want to stay informed. Please talk with your member friends and let us know if they need to receive items such as the newsletter, meeting agenda, etc. via USPS. We will do our best to be sure they too are included in our outreach efforts.

Simply complete this form and we'll take it from there! Thank you for helping us achieve our outreach goal to promote inclusivity.

New Date: Virtual, Monroe Sweetland Dinner is being moved to October. Stay tuned for more details!
