A Leader Who
Listens
Portland is my home. I’m proud to serve my community by championing the voice of the people in public policymaking.
Let’s build the city we deserve.
Why We Support Sameer Kanal
Meet Sameer Kanal
I’m a human rights scholar, a renter, and a believer that government should listen to and collaborate with the people. I’ve dedicated my career to public service, including working for the City’s Community Safety Division, ensuring community input is always part of decision-making. I serve on Portland’s Parks Board and the board of Dodgeball PDX, and I’m the founder of a non-profit that fosters students’ understanding of global affairs. I’ve seen our government in action from all sides and know how to get things done.
Why I’m Running
With an all-new system of government starting next year, we need experienced leaders who will champion the needs of our communities, build consensus, and find real solutions to the tough problems in our city. I’m running to be that advocate for the people of North and Northeast Portland.
As your Councilmember, I will prioritize holistic community safety, well-maintained infrastructure, and housing for all. From expanding violence prevention efforts to ensuring everyone has a safe place to sleep, I will fight for a safer, more prosperous Portland for all of us and a government that works for the people.
Help fuel our people-powered campaign!
