She was always too chicken shit to run for higher office in this state. Likely didn't want to run again as she sees the writing on the wall in WA State and decided to take a 3-year pay increase before retiring.
Just a sign of commitment to "election security". One thing that pisses me off is how leftards are convinced that changing the language is how you win. Illegal aliens becomes undocumented worker. For some weak minded PMS suburban housewives it probably works. Voter ID becomes racist. Sh*t, almost any "conservative" position also held by dems a decade ago is now racist. It becomes important to deny hispanics their Spanish language heritage and turn latino into latinx. Fortunately, most of them treat is as I do. The Portland local TV media has now change "homeless" to "houseless". You can see the big difference and their total commitment to solve the now houseless problem.
It’s homeless, because they don’t have a home. Apartment, condo, duplex, shotgun shack, mansion, or otherwise. They live in the streets, many of them by choice. A car is not a home. A tent is not a home. An overpass is not a home.
Calling it houseless does absolutely nothing to address this situation. I can’t believe my tax dollars pays for these people to sit around with their ducks in their hands, coming up with this shit.

Then toss in the complete hall pass the homeless have. City codes? Just ignore them. An actual homeowner? Not that's a target. A target they can fine and then fund and attract some more homeless. The 14th amendment doesn't apply to the property owners.
A report from Portland's city ombudsman found that property complaints and city fines over code violations like overgrown grass disproportionately affect gentrifying areas where residents are vulnerable to displacement. [Add a few homeless tents or an RV and you are golden]
An analysis by a Portland city watchdog found that complaints about property maintenance have been highly concentrated in the city’s most diverse and rapidly gentrifying neighborhoods [where the homeless live large].
The report from the city ombudsman’s office made public Wednesday showed that neighborhoods with some of the fastest-rising home prices, and those with the most racially diverse residents, tend to also face the most financial consequences for property violations like overgrown grass, trash in a yard or a deteriorating building.
It suggests that the code enforcements could disproportionally affect residents of color and contribute to displacement.
The city ombudsman’s office collected and analyzed of six years’ worth of maintenance complaints submitted to the Bureau of Development Services between 2013 and 2018. Portland’s enforcement system is primarily complaint-driven, and fines or penalties can be assessed if a resident has run afoul of one of dozens of code requirements. Some address safety concerns like a dangerous or collapsing structure, but others govern maintenance issues like peeling paint or missing siding.
Residents who are found to be in violation of city property rules can face escalating fines or end up with a code enforcement lien attached to the property that’s been deemed out of compliance. That could put the resident at risk of foreclosure.
The analysis showed that the number of property maintenances complaints was higher in neighborhoods with higher percentages of people of color, an increase in median home price between 2013 and 2017, and a larger percentage of the population below the poverty level.
But the number of complaints was lower in neighborhoods where the home cost per square foot was higher, the median household income was higher [Go figure], and there was greater access to public transit and bike paths.

She is also a RINO.
Does that include people renting an apartment?
