Multnomah Democrats Endorsement Committee recommendation:
Ruth Adkins’ work running the Oregon Rapid Response Network shows a commitment to grassroots activism and holding the media accountable to a high standard of journalistic integrity. This commitment to grassroots activism is particularly important in working with the School Board, where one of the chief complaints of the community has been a lack of public influence on the decisions made by the school board. We are curious to know from other school activists in SW Portland about their experiences working with Ruth in schools-related advocacy. We recommend that the MCDP endorse Ruth Adkins for Portland School District Director, Zone 1.
Multnomah Democrats will vote on this endorsement recommendation at their March 15 meeting. Come and support Ruth and the Democratic Party!
