Trust is the foundation for democracy; without it, people don't willingly engage with government policy. Our guest today is Jennifer McGuirk who keeps government agencies accountable. Jennifer is Multnomah County’s Auditor which means that she examines data to determine if there's been, abuse or mismanagement of government programs.
Since being sworn into office in 2019 the auditor's office, under Jennifer’s oversight, has released multiple reports touching on topics including services for people with intellectual and developmental disabilities and Multnomah County's response to the covid-19 pandemic. In our interview, we discuss what compelled Jennifer to run for office, redistricting, and how auditors office works with the community.
