Thanks for your support of CHAT. When I ran for Council in 2024, I attended a presentation by CHAT- which I knew nothing about at the time- on what they do, and how they both save lives and save significant funding by responding to low acuity medical emergencies.
They are a significant part of our public safety fabric, and it is important that their funding be restored- along with other proposed cuts to the Fire and Police bureaus.
Thank you, Michelle! CHAT is vital to our public safety system. My budget amendment would restore it along with other cuts to our public safety system. See the article in today’s Oregonian. I need 7 votes on Council to get it passed.
A higher priority for Portland was hiring a Chief Equity Officer to lead the Office of Equity and Human Rights. Given the condition of Portland’s budget, it is reasonable to ask - Do we really need an Office of Equity and Human Rights?

Bravo Ms Milla! Excellent article. I’ve just contacted all councilors & will pass this on to everyone I know!
Well spake. Thanks for the thoughtfulness.

We LOVE the Examiner! And you need to visit and tell our small world
about the Lovett Collection on St.Helens Road; it's quite incredible.
