Don Merrill interviews Teresa Alonso Leon, a candidate for Oregon's 6th US Congressional District

Teresa Alonso Leon is a democratic candidate for Oregon's new 6th US House District.  She talked with Don Merrill about why diversity and inclusion in everything from language to relationships is crucial to how she connects with her community, why she believes both in the 2nd Amendment and the need for legislation to encourage responsible gun storage, and why as a legislator who remembers picking berries with her migrant farm worker parents as a child, she still tears up when she thinks of how far she's come.
