Ep 79: Disabled Candidates

June 15, 2020

Today’s episode features a conversation with Amanda Siebe (@SiebeforORD1), a disabled candidate who ran for a Congressional House seat representing district one in Oregon. Please note that Amanda and I spoke last year before the recent May primary. Unfortunately Amanda was not elected as the candidate for the Demcratic general election but you will hear about her experiences running for office, her platform, and why political change and representation is so important.
