About the People For Sandy PAC
You asked, we are listening…
Who are the People For Sandy? That’s ALL OF US who are citizens of 97055 that care about this city.
Why did we form a PAC (Political Action Committee)? We are not seeking to become political activists but when we see problems, we want to be a part of finding solutions. We knew we had candidates for Mayor and Council who wanted to run and we wanted to support them, so we started making phone calls to learn how to go about it correctly. The Oregon Secretary of State advised us that the best way to do this was to form a PAC, which was intended to do two things: to support and to allow detailed financial reporting of expenses and donations for each candidate.
Transparency is key, so all of our financial information is available on the Secretary of State’s website.
It is clear that new leadership is needed in Sandy government, and while the two of us live in Sandy but outside city limits, we are extremely invested in our town. We don’t have a vote, but we can offer our time and efforts to bring change by helping those who CAN serve our community and are willing to step up and make it happen!
