Jessica Vega Pederson - May 7, 2020 Portland Conversations
Jason Allen interviews Jessica Vega Pederson who is the incumbent Multnomah County Commissioner, District #3 in 2020.
"Our region has grown, and with that growth has come prosperity and inequity. We’re working together to build the 21st century community we need with housing for all, a commitment to addressing the climate crisis, and by ensuring every child has the chance to succeed as early as possible. Together, we can build the modern, equitable, and sustainable community we deserve!
I am a mother, a business professional, a progressive Democrat, a proud resident of East Portland, and the first Latina elected to the Oregon House of Representatives.
As Multnomah County Commissioner I’ve fought to make sure every member of our community has what they need to succeed. I want to make Multnomah County an even better place to live, work, and raise a family. I'm ready to get to work and I hope you'll join us!"
