Join us July 28 from 4-6 PM. for our DePass for Portland, District 2 Campaign Kick-Off Party. Please RSVP to allow us a head count and to plan accordingly.

The Campaign Party location in District 2 will be emailed one week before the event to those who RSVP YES. All ages are welcome.

I look forward to celebrating with each of you.

We’re 118 days away from the November general election, and campaign season is in full swing. My campaign for Portland City Council, District 2, is building momentum every day and I am honored to continue earning endorsements from community leaders and members of the public.

I am running for office because Portland is home, the city I was born and raised in, and I am working hard so that social outcomes in Portland are not determined by race, income, sexual orientation, or gender.

At my core I am a progressive candidate who understands and challenges the role of local government. I have a strong vision for postive changes I would like to see in every operational facet of the city, including policy positions in housing, transportation, infrastructure, public safety, and livability. I understand how public policy plays out in real life, how to articulate a vision, and implement the vision for improvements, while bringing my colleagues and the community along together.

I love Portland and I am thrilled to celebrate our great city with you, in community, sharing more about why I will be an asset on City Council.

In Gratitude,

Michelle

Priorities

Michelle DePass continues working hard to expand opportunities for all Portlanders, including Portland students, working families, small business owners, and proud union members in a green, stable, and safe community where everyone has the opportunity to thrive.

  • Portlanders care about the environment and the beauty around them. Michelle will work to ensure no one is left behind in maintaining Portland's natural beauty and the transition to a sustainable future.

  • Portlanders deserve safe and affordable housing. Michelle will work to champion housing options that ensure a welcoming community for all of our neighbors.

  • Effective transportation comes down to safety, efficiency, and clean energy. Michelle wants bicyclists to be safe, pedestrians to have the right-of-way, and potholes to be filled.

  • Portlanders deserve to thrive from age 0-100+. Michelle believes in creating an age-friendly framework that supports all of Portland's most vulnerable members, including children and the elderly.
