As part of the latest round of community project funding proposals in the U.S. House of Representatives, Bonamici is advocating for $3 million to go toward proposed safety improvements along a section of TV Highway in Forest Grove to increase safety for walkers and bikers along the busy corridor.
82nd Avenue is an area leaders say has been stricken by poverty and inequality. It's centered in one of the most racially and culturally diverse areas in the state of Oregon.
U.S. Rep. Suzanne Bonamici met Thursday with representatives at the former Red Lion Inn & Suites in Seaside and the Elk Creek Terrace Apartments in Cannon Beach to discuss affordable housing models.
The congresswoman, who represents the North Coast, said affordable housing is a priority for her and many of her colleagues.
“Co-location is common sense,” Bonamici said. “It simultaneously addresses the needs for affordable housing and child care — and Oregon is leading the way.”
