  Former Portland Commissioner Rene Gonzalez has intensified an ongoing legal battle with the city and the office of its elected watchdog over campaign finance violations he faced last fall during his unsuccessful bid for mayor.

Former Portland Commissioner and mayoral candidate, Sarah Iannarone, has threatened to sue the City of Portland over campaign finance penalties she received for allegedly violating campaign finance laws during her 2020 mayoral campaign. Iannarone claims the penalties, which total over $30,000, are unjust and politically motivated, arguing that the city's campaign finance regulations are vague and inconsistently enforced. She asserts that her campaign meticulously followed the rules and that the city's actions are an attempt to suppress her political voice. The city, on the other hand, maintains that Iannarone's campaign accepted illegal contributions and failed to properly report them, justifying the fines. This legal battle could have significant implications for future campaign finance enforcement in Portland.
