Nancy English’s experience working in City Hall makes her uniquely qualified for Portland City Council. After years serving as a professional researcher and reader, she is prepared to digest and make sense of the complicated documents essential to understanding Portland’s issues and acting on them. English knows what is possible and how to get it done.
English seeks perspectives from experts to make informed decisions. She’s neither self interested nor politically motivated; her objective is to represent working people in the neighborhoods and city she loves.
English has the perspective of a single parent who raised a daughter in Portland. She advocates for multilingual families, manageable class sizes, and she sees the benefits of supporting college prep courses, trades programs and adult education. English supports budgets that support our teachers and educational technicians.
I know Nancy English well; your vote elects a considerate, competent and collaborative representative for Portland’s District 2.
