Community voices.

"I've known Rachel Philip for many years as someone who's deeply involved in the community in Beaverton. Her leadership in a wide range of committees and community groups has pushed for a more livable, equitable Beaverton that's better for families. I'm excited to support Rachel for City of Beaverton Council Position 1 and see her continue to work to make Beaverton a great city."

"Rachel was one of the most ambitious members of the Transportation Ambassador Team. She worked tirelessly to understand what the citizens of Beaverton wanted and needed from our Transportation System, and I am confident she will bring the same energy to the City Council. I am proud to endorse her as a City Council Candidate."

I believe she will seek out new perspectives, weigh the alternatives, consider possible outcomes, and develop reasoned positions. She's very engaged with our community and is genuinely committed."
