About this Event

Multnomah County voters will choose a new District Attorney in May 2020, and there’s a lot at stake. We are inviting the candidates to this forum to hear from us-- the community-- about our needs and demands. This event will lift up the voices of people and communities most directly impacted by the criminal legal system and policing, including those who have lost a family member to police violence.
