Mark Gamba Prioritizes Real Climate Action

Climate change is the main reason Mark first ran for office. It remains his top priority to this day. During his first term in the legislature he professionalized the Environmental Caucus and brought on visionary staff, championed groundbreaking environmental policies, and successfully killed efforts to weaken environmental protections to create more profit for wealthy interests. Mark has also set the stage for the next big push: modernizing how we plan and build out our electrical transmission systems.

Mark Gamba Champions Solutions to the Housing Crisis

Homeownership is the traditional way of building generational wealth and it is increasingly out of reach for regular Oregonians. Solving this crisis requires an all-hands-on-deck approach. Mark has led the charge on reforming how we finance affordable housing, on renter protections, on lowering the cost to construct new housing, and more. We can trust him to continue the fight in Salem.

Mark Gamba Fights to Rebalance the Scales of Wealth Inequality

Nearly all of our societal ills may be traced back to the diminishing share of wealth held by the middle and lower classes. From diseases of despair like drug addiction, to rampant unsheltered homelessness, to Americans’ shortening life expectancy, the concentration of wealth into the hands of a relative few has left the rest of us increasingly struggling to survive. Mark is unafraid of taking on monied interests and pushing for bold, transformative change. We need an undaunted voice like his fighting for us in the legislature.

Mark only accepts political contributions from entities that prioritize public and planetary good.
