Dear Friends and Neighbors,
I hope you are enjoying our beautiful summer weather. It has been a busy month for me as your state representative. I’ve met with numerous local organizations to discuss the needs of our community. I also hosted my largest constituent coffee yet. I’ve included some updates below.
Over the past few weeks, I met with three local organizations that play a vital role in our community:
-
Adelante Mujeres: I visited their headquarters in Forest Grove and met with their leadership team to discuss the incredible programs they operate related to agriculture, childcare, education, health, and small business development.
-
Clean Water Services: I toured the Rock Creek Water Resource Recovery Facility and learned about the innovative work they do to ensure our access to clean water while simultaneously protecting the environment.
-
Hillsboro Airport: I toured the Hillsboro Airport and met with the director as well as his colleagues to discuss the future growth of the airport and its role in the economic vitality of Hillsboro.
My July Constituent Coffee was the largest yet! It was wonderful to connect with so many residents and discuss issues such as affordable housing, clean energy, gun safety, mental health, and much more. I want to thank Hillsboro City Councilor Anthony Martin for joining us as well. His input was invaluable.
I hope to see you at my next Constituent Coffee on August 06 from 9:00 a.m. to 10:30 a.m. at the Insomnia Coffee - Tanasbourne located at 9355 NE Windsor Street, Hillsboro, OR 97006.
