Christopher Olson

Chip in to help elect a grassroots progressive to Portland City Council, District 2

My name is Chris Olson and I'm running for Portland City Council in District 2 (N/NE Portland).


I'm a community organizer who has worked in the non-profit sector for over ten years and volunteered on progressive voter registration initiatives and local campaigns.


I’ve got a clear plan to make Portland work for everyone.


My plan has three key areas of focus:


1. Housing and Economic Justice

2. Transportation and Climate Change

3. Community Safety and Development


I want to STOP THE SWEEPS that keep people unhoused and pass a Renters Bill of Rights to prevent landlords from raising rent over 5% per year.


I have signed the Save Portland Street Response pledge, vowing to prioritize, introduce, and vote in favor of full funding for Portland Street Response to operate 24-7 in every budget cycle. Additionally, I signed the No Fossil Fuel Money pledge, committing not to accept contributions of over $200 from the oil, gas, and coal industries, and the No Police Money Pledge, rejecting donations or endorsements from police unions or associations.


Join me in creating a better city and vote for Chris Olson in District 2!
