GETTING OREGON BACK TO BASICS
Salem insiders have lost focus on the basics.Too many politicians chase political experiments that make life harder for Oregon families. Higher taxes, rising costs, and less safe communities are the result.
As your State Representative, I stood up and got results. I helped lead the effort to re-criminalize hard drugs after failed policies flooded our streets with addiction, crime, and human suffering. I opposed major tax increases like the gas tax and supported campaign finance reforms so powerful insiders cannot control our elections.
You deserve a problem-solver who STANDS UP for common sense. That’s exactly what I intend to be as your next State Senator.
MAKING OREGON MORE AFFORDABLE
Oregon is becoming too expensive for working families. Taxes remain high, housing costs keep rising, and government spending keeps growing. Farmers, small businesses, and hardworking families are being squeezed while Salem continues expanding government.
I will continue fighting unnecessary tax increases, bloated budgets, and policies that make it harder to live and work in Oregon.
LOWERING ENERGY COSTS
Families and small businesses are being squeezed by rising energy costs driven by mandates from Salem. We need balanced energy policies that keep power reliable, affordable, and protect family-wage jobs across Oregon.
RESTORING EDUCATION STANDARDS
As a dad, I know our students deserve strong expectations and real opportunity. An Oregon diploma should prepare students for college, careers, apprenticeships or the skilled trades.
PRIORITIZING PUBLIC SAFETY
After twenty-five years in law enforcement, I know safe communities require accountability. I will continue supporting law enforcement and restoring order to our neighborhoods and communities.
“I would be honored to have your vote and serve you once again!”
