Portland Public Schools (PPS) belongs to all of us. Yet the first or second question board candidates still hear is, "Do you have kids in PPS?" That's understandable; parents have front‑row seats, but it can also overlook that 3 out of 4 households supporting PPS don't have school‑aged children.

Welcome to Populist Consensus, an organization for those who reject a political system dominated by corporate greed and self-serving politicians. We aim to reclaim local politics and empower the working majority. If you're weary of elites making excuses while working-class people are overlooked, welcome home.
