Rep. Gamba (D, HD41) will hold a Constituent Conversation event on Sat., May 31st, at 6404 SE 23rd Ave, Portland. Street-parking and volunteers will be available to guide folds to the room. He’s been working on ways to help our schools, cities, and other public employers as PERS costs are a gigantic contributor to the budget holes pretty much all of them are facing. What about the budget holes the private sector, everyday citizens are facing, thanks to the one-party-rulers never-ending tax and fee increases?
