The County has opened 12 shelters — the most locations ever. But keeping more than 1,000 beds available in those shelters requires community help. Anyone who is able and can travel to a shelter site safely is asked to volunteer for a shelter shift. bit.ly/423ZcyA

Registered apprenticeships provide Americans with the skills needed to compete in the modern economy. I support expanding these high-quality programs to give more workers the opportunities to succeed. #NationalApprenticeshipWeek

We honor the history, spirit, resilience, and contributions of Indigenous People from the area now known as Portland, which rests on the homelands and traditional territory of many neighboring tribal nations.
