"A former bookstore owner who is a strong advocate for disability and renters’ rights, Eudaly while in office has spearheaded two renter protection policies, one requiring landlords to provide evicted tenants with relocation payments and the other lowering barriers to securing a rental home.
She ordered code enforcement officers to limit punishing people sleeping in RVs or tiny homes on private property, and championed the city financing free legal defense for Portlanders in Immigration Court."
