On the Issues

April knows

Government should work. For all of us.

As our State Representative, April is holding government accountable for our community.

  • Defending Reproductive Freedom

  • Addressing the Crisis on our Streets

  • Keeping Us Safe

  • Repealing Tolling

Defending Reproductive Freedom

With Washington, D.C. politicians defunding Planned Parenthood as a back-door abortion ban that would limit access to abortion in Oregon, it’s more important than ever to protect every woman's right to make their own healthcare decisions. I'm fighting to defend and expand access to reproductive healthcare, including abortion and IVF.

Addressing the Crisis on our Streets

I will work with anyone willing to leave politics at the door and find real solutions to homelessness and addiction. I fought to reform civil commitment, so people experiencing a mental health crisis can get the care they need and reformed Oregon’s homeless shelter system with better oversight of how your tax dollars are spent.

Keeping Us Safe

Keeping our community safe is my top priority. I fought to close legal loopholes and extend the statute of limitations, so survivors of domestic violence and sexual assault get the justice they deserve. And I championed common-sense gun safety legislation, supported by public safety leaders, that bans bump stocks and other dangerous firearm modifications in Oregon.

Repealing Tolling

Clackamas County residents already pay more than their fair share. That's why I fought until we won a complete repeal of proposed tolling in Clackamas County. Not “paused.” Repealed.
