Sorry I haven't been around a lot. I was getting a Bachelor's degree, camping, growing plants, and hiding from this nightmare of a political landscape.

My name is John Heylin, and I’m running for Deschutes County Commission, Position #1.

It is time to have leadership that listens to all of Deschutes County and actively addresses the problems we face. We need a Commission that leads with action, not excuses.

Doing stuff helps. I was feeling pretty down this morning and went to a hearing where I was prepared to speak in favor of some 'safe parking' spots here in Bend. They were approved!

Find some things to do where you can do a little bit each day.

For me that's @bendyimby.bsky.social
