Watching my mom struggle to raise our family despite working so hard gave me the drive to fight for change. She and my grandfather taught me the importance of community — neighbors helping neighbors, the power of unions, and a love of the outdoors.

I'm asking for your vote so together we can fight for:
Improved Healthcare
Improving our healthcare system is my life's work. Healthcare workers are at a breaking point. It is time for serious reform.
"With deep health policy experience, Charles can find creative solutions to help the 300,000 Oregonians at risk of losing their health care coverage next year.
– John Kitzhaber, MD, former Governor
Housing Security
Oregonians are concerned about homelessness and housing affordability. This crisis has been building for years. I'll make it a top priority.
Quality Education
Teachers, staff, students, and parents have endured two years of trauma. We must provide a supportive, and safe school environment. I'll make sure all students, including children with special healthcare needs, get a quality education.
