We Proudly Support John Heylin
“I'm thrilled to endorse John Heylin for County Commissioner. I serve on Bend's Environment and Climate Committee, and I manage a local waste prevention and recycling initiative. I've had the pleasure of interacting with John through both of those roles, and most recently through his founding of the CO Tool Library.
John is a man of action – taking an idea and turning it into a real community resource. I'm excited to see him bring this same creative zeal, community spirit, and care for all to our County Commission.”
Kavi Chokshi
Environmental, Recycling, and Waste Reduction Advocate
“I believe that John would be an excellent pick for the Deschutes County Commission. His professional experience as a business owner, his volunteer experience on City of Bend's Accessibility Advisory Committee (COBAAC) and other advisory boards, his political action for the betterment for our community, and his commitments to robust disability inclusive policy and healthcare demonstrate his commitment to fight for our counties needs with the qualifications to back him up.”
Andrew Caruana
Disability and Mental Health Wellness Advocate
“John Heylin leads with both integrity and vision. He is unafraid to ask hard questions, listen deeply, and put in the work necessary to bridge divides.
As a small business owner, John demonstrated that entrepreneurship can be rooted in values of community care and sustainability.
Our community is better when leaders like John step forward to shape its future, and I wholeheartedly support his efforts to build a Bend that is truly equitable, accessible, and welcoming.”
