I am happy to announce this year’s recipient of the 1st Multnomah Democrat’s Sue Hagmeier Summit Scholarship; Kevin Cronin.

Kevin has been active in Lane, Josephine and Multnomah Counties, and even ventured to Wisconsin to support recall campaigns against anti-Union GOP senators and GOP Gov. Scott Walker. Kevin looks forward to address the housing crisis and issues of tenant rights, and has a keen focus on making Multnomah County fully blue via electing a Democratic Senator to the Mt. Hood area Senate District 26.

This year’s Democratic Party of Oregon Summit, held in Sunriver, Oregon, will be take place from Friday, October 20 to Sunday, October 22, 2017. The event, occurs every other year and marks the kick-off to next year’s election season and is a fun and information-packed weekend in the gorgeous setting of Central Oregon.

Kevin will receive full registration to the Summit, which includes meals and housing. Additionally, the award will include a seat at the Keynote Dinner featuring Congressman Ted Leiu of California, one of the Democratic Party’s up and coming new national stars.
