SENATOR MERKLEY CLATSOP COUNTY TOWN HALL Saturday, April 6 at 2:30 pm Patriot Hall - Gym, first floor Clatsop Community College 1651 Lexington Avenue, Astoria  This is Senator Jeff Merkley's 545th town hall since he was first elected to the Senate. Senator Merkley says, "I invite all Clatsop County community members to come and discuss ideas to strengthen our state and our nation. I hope to see you there!"   TOWN HALL WITH CLATSOP COUNTY'S STATE LEGISLATORS State Senator Suzanne Weber and State Representative Cyrus Javadi INCO ENDORSES SCHELLER FOR COUNTY COMMISSIONER "There is no one better suited for the commissioner position than Tessa Scheller. "Tessa started life in service to our country as an U.S. Army medic; in the past 40 years Tessa has worked to serve folks in Clatsop County as a nurse anesthetist and on various boards and committees. There is not an issue Tessa hasn’t delved into and worked on diligently for our community — from public health, to education, to land use planning and housing." -- Laura Allen, Seaside, excerpt from The Astorian, March 26, 2024 Learn more about Tessa on Facebook. You can donate to her campaign online here, or mail a check to: Tessa for D2 PO Box 211 Astoria, OR 97103  INCO ENDORSES LOGAN LAITY FOR STATE REPRESENTATIVE LOGAN LAITY FOR OREGON HOUSE DISTRICT 32  An enthusiastic community volunteer, Chair of the Tillamook Urban Renewal Agency, and resourceful entrepreneur, Logan Laity is a committed progressive Democrat. He's running to represent us in the Oregon legislature against incumbent MAGA follower Cyrus Javadi, who proposed legislation to ban abortion in Oregon. In his March 28 fundraising email Javadi said, "Friend, it has been an honor being your representative so far, and I want to continue doing my part to make a difference on the coast. With the HCP threatening our way of life and liberal extremists restricting our rights, there’s still work to be done."  Our work is to defeat Javadi and elect Logan Laity. Logan needs grassroots donors, so please support Logan against Javadi's well-funded campaign by donating now. Your donation will allow Logan to meet more voters, publicize his campaign positions, and campaign more effectively. Learn more about Logan here.
