SPRINGFIELD – While Eugene recently hosted Democratic Party luminaries Senators Bernie Sanders and Jeff Merkley and retiring Representative Peter DeFazio, Springfield also enjoyed an audience with a political heavyweight as Senator Ron Wyden made an appearance at Hayden Bridge Landing to tout affordable housing solutions.
Wyden is an affordable housing champion and recently co-sponsored legislation to allow state and local governments to use Coronavirus fiscal recovery funds to make long-term loans to affordable housing developments.
