I grew up right here in rural Oregon, shearing Christmas trees, working the land, and learning what real grit looks like. I've faced hard knocks—neck fractures from rodeo, Hollywood setbacks, rebuilding from scratch—and came out tougher. That's the fight I'm bringing to Salem for District 52 so that Oregonian's have a real voice.
Oregon's rural and Gorge communities deserve a real champion, not another Salem insider or Portland puppet. As a farmer, barrel racer, and mom who's lived the hardworking life, I know the burdens families face every day.
Taxes & Cost of Living
I'll fight to kill unfair gas tax hikes, vehicle fee gouges, and Portland-style burdens that crush truck-dependent rural workers. No more taxing essentials—let's roll back costs and demand real accountability for every dollar in Salem.
Public Safety
Enough with soft-on-crime policies spilling out from Portland. I'll back law enforcement fully, restore real consequences, and keep our communities safe from drugs, theft, and chaos.
Farms, Property & Economy
Government must stop over-regulating family farms and small businesses. I'll defend against eminent domain abuse, corporate land grabs, and radical environmental rules that kill jobs. Protect water rights, cut red tape, and put rural Oregon first.
Education
Parents—not bureaucrats—should control their kids' education. I support school choice, local control, and keeping woke agendas out of classrooms.
“Darcy is exactly the kind of candidate Oregon needs in Salem—a tough, resilient fighter who has overcome incredible challenges in her own life and understands firsthand the grit it takes to succeed.” — , Representative Vikki Breese-Iverson, Former House Republican Leader Oregon's Rural Champion
I've got the grit and the backbone to stand up for our values. No fear, no nonsense—let's take back our voice.
