Your vote is powerful. This past week in Camas is further proof that your vote either elects people that laugh at the plight of the homeless during a pandemic, spend millions of city funds on non-essential projects while the economy is in freefall and unanimously votes on every issue that comes before them without debate OR it responds to the actual reality of the moment in your city dynamically and always works on behalf of you, the people, especially during the difficult times. What you see in this video isn't an anomaly. It's the type of leadership that Camas deserves. Ask yourself if any of your current city council would risk their own personal standing in a moment like this on your behalf? This Camas city council that approved an $8m roundabout this week and declared gymnastics day in Camas while two of our neighbors in Clark County literally died the same night miles down the road from complications related to COVID-19. Ask yourself if any of them would stand up on your behalf while facing a wall of opposition when it mattered? Camas deserves dedicated leaders like this councillor, a gentleman from Florida named Omari Hardy, who stood up when it mattered yesterday for the people he represents having their city-owned power shut off during a crisis. Camas deserves leaders like this man and can have them. Camas deserves better.

So the bid was awarded for the RAB, according to Lacamas magazine. Despite some possible delay due to the virus, plans are to go ahead like nothing is wrong in the world?
Notice the first "go to" the "leader" employs. "You're done," she says. And in case the rest of the room didn't hear it, she comes back to the dais to repeat it once again. "You're done!"
This is the sheer contempt she has for those who dare challenge her authority. She doesn't even consider what he's saying, who's behalf he's saying it on, and what the rest of the electorate feels about what he said. Instead, she doubles down and focuses on a single takeaway- "You're done!" Because the only thing she really cares about is silencing anybody who doesn't carry her filthy water.
Wow. Whoever this guy is....can I write him in for President?
@WATCH Camas Staff I am unable to view the Burton/Anderson council meeting video where they're joking about homeless people and COVID on NextDoor. Is there a copy of that video here?
Reading more, the city (uniquely) owns their power plant and they have the highest rates in the state apparently.
Wow
Is there a newslink to this story?
