Do you know Doyle Canning?
September 19, 2019
Doyle Canning is Peter DeFazio’s primary challenger, and Peter D has a real primary race on his hands.
If you don’t have time to read the latest profile of Canning in Eugene Weekly, here’s the quick and dirty:
- Canning finished third in her class in law school while raising two young children.
- Canning’s a community organizer and entrepreneur who co-founded Center for Story-based Strategy.
- Canning’s a firm supporter of Medicare for All and the Green New Deal. (Watch her TED talk!)
- Canning’s refusing money from corporate political action committees, lobbyists and the fossil fuel industry.
With this kind of challenge, it’s no wonder Peter DeFazio keeps lurching left in this independent district!
