AFSCME Local 88 Endorses Jessica Vega Peterson for Multnomah County Chair

AFSCME Local 88 is proud to join more than 60 labor unions, activist organizations, elected officials and business and community leaders in endorsing Jessica Vega Pederson as our next Multnomah County Chair. 

We need a leader who can bring together stakeholders from all walks of life to craft meaningful policy that improves the lives of working families. Jessica did just that when she fought for paid sick leave and a higher minimum wage and in passing Preschool for All, insisting on labor neutrality requirements for behavioral health contractors. We believe in Jessica’s ability to fight for a fairer economic playing field and build upon the strengths of one of the County’s greatest assets: its employees.

"We need a leader who can bring together stakeholders from all walks of life to craft meaningful policy that improves the lives of working families. That's why AFSCME is proud to endorse Jessica as our next Multnomah County Chair." -Joslyn Baker, AFSCME Local 88 President
