Thank you, 80% of MultCo commissioners!
Earlier this afternoon I was proud to be joined by @multco.bsky.social board colleagues @meghanmoyer.bsky.social, @shannonsingleton.bsky.social, @vincejonesdixon.bsky.social as we stood united against this undemocratic attempt to kill Preschool for All by the State Legislature.

🚨 Heads-up, neighbors: our Preschool for All program (approved by 64 % of MultCo voters) faces a last-minute push in Salem to suspend its funding. Let’s talk facts, not fear. 🧵👇🏾

🔈People are wondering how they can support their community amid this federal intervention. One of the main ways MultCo is supporting our community is by ensuring our services remain available. MultCo stands in solidarity — and is coordinating closely — with the City of Portland and Oregon:

Implementation and administrative competence issues apply to every MultCo program, not just this one. If she’s actually concerned about delivering results for MultCo residents, the actions she should take look very different.

Filing reports from the "GoPDX" PAC show the direct link between the business-led United for Portland PAC and a trio of new independent expenditures (GoPDX, Ditch Mitch & fix multco).
These are the PACs behind a grip of billboards bashing Councilor Green / supporting Commissioner Brim-Edwards.

failing to even *mention* that *the entire reason metro spent so little of their budget is because multco refused to release it* makes this story not exactly false, but pretty fucking close

Kyle Prosen’s PACs (DitchMitch, fix multCo, and goPDX) finally reported some transactions to ORESTAR, filed last night at midnight. United For Portland Action Fund gave $100,000 to goPDX, which then ~likely~ funneled $50,000 each to DitchMitch and fix multCo.

Everybody's favorite shithead PDXReal is trying to do a similar "investigation" in MultCo. 🙄
Trump guys are about to Comet Pizza every third daycare center because they think they are all fronts for Somali money laundering. They're only doing this near cities with progressive mayors. This is straight up Government by LibsOfTikTok.

it is turning into a true policy disaster that wilson blew up our coordination agreements with multco and spent millions of dollars during a budget crisis on these shelters that he can't keep open for more than a year
It was the largest of the shelters built during Wilson's 11-month push to open 1,500 new shelter beds.

It's been 6 years since I moved to MultCo, and sometimes I forget how bad it is out west.
And then I am forced to remember.

decrepit old wooden sign banning motor vehicles in the park finally fell down and i noticed it cites a multco ordinance which i think means it's from pre-annexation? east portland infrastructure is so so good

In addition to policy victories at City Hall, DSA Councilors held status quo politicians & powerful interests accountable by ensuring their backroom activities were forced into the public eye (Moda, for example).
They also defended against attacks on Preschool for All even though it was at MultCo

Looking at the new East MultCo Transpo safety plan. Basically every arterial is a "high injury corridor." It's almost as if these streets are dangerous by design and it's a feature not a bug. I mean, there's no escaping these streets if you want to live a life. What have we done

there’s a circular problem here, multco has been a fucking incompetent disaster when it comes to funding metro, which means metro’s choice for DA can’t actually do the job he was elected to do, which means multco voters (and some of east metro) oust him to replace him with multco’s choice
Yeah it's an artifact of bypassing the paywall, sorry. Here's the map. Basically: Schmidt did well on the eastside W of 205, Vasquez did well everywhere else. Affluent suburbs plus poorer East Portland neighborhoods are a winning tough-on-crime coalition!

There are currently a zillion open precinct committee people positions at Multco Dems as we speak. Just be a registered Dem, vote in elections, and then contact them on their webpage about it. They will vote you in as a PCP in the next monthly meeting.

in this case, 30k multco voters is not nothing. that's about half of kotek's 2022 margin. these are numbers that in and of themselves are significant in a close election
