Housing:
I’m XX, I live in XXX, and I’m a XXX Worker for XXXX amount of time
I work hard and I always have
I’ve struggled with paying my rent and making my bills on time.
But Costs keep going up. Watching TV and seeing ads from Republican leader Drazen makes me mad.
She’s pretending to care about me but voting against capping rent increases and letting landlords kick me out for no reason. She’s not with me she’s just fake.
Seniors and People with Disabilities:
I’m XX, I live in XXX, and I’m a XXX Worker for XXXX amount of time
I take care of my xxx family member for xx years.
I want all people in Oregon to have a safe place to live regardless if they have a disability and someone to help them age with dignity.
Tina Kotek has made it possible for workers like me to make enough money to care for the people we love so they don’t end up on the streets.
Mental Health
I’m XX, I live in XXX, and I’m a XXX Worker for XXXX amount of time
I see the impacts of addiction and mental health challenges every day in my job. It’s ravaging our communities.
We don’t need a governor whose solution to the problem is to lock them up.
We need a governor who listens to voters and is going to implement the treatment we were promised.
Minimum Wage:
I’m XX, I live in XXX, and I’m a XXX Worker for XXXX amount of time.
My first big wage increase was 3 years ago after Tina Kotek championed the minimum wage.
And for the first time, I got to stay home sick without worrying about losing wages.
Tina Kotek has been on my side, getting things done for people like me.
I’m voting for tina for governor because she’s been with me and I trust her to actually get things done.
Healthcare
I’m XX, I live in XXX, and I’m a XXX Worker for XXXX amount of time
I was a home care worker for over xxx years without health care – I remember visiting Tina Kotek’s office and her committing to help workers like me get the health care I needed and she did.
In xxxx year, I got health care through a trust that Tina Kotek established in the legislature.
I don’t need empty promises and fake changes I need action and Tina Kotek is about action.
