Campaign themes
2014
Damon's campaign website highlighted the following issues:[1]
Attract, Retain and Grow Local Businesses
- Excerpt: "Senate District 20 is the heart of Clackamas County with family farms; forests; and working communities. We have tremendous opportunities for job growth from the redevelopment of the Blue Heron paper mill in Oregon City to supporting thriving small town Main Streets in Estacada and Canby."
Quality Schools = Successful Communities
- Excerpt: "School funding in our state must be a top priority. We can’t afford to continue cutting funds in Oregon classrooms, laying off teachers, or cutting school days. It is unacceptable that Oregon has one of the shortest school years in the nation. An educated workforce is critical to attracting, retaining and growing local businesses. Quality schools are essential for successful students and communities."
Finding Solutions for Clackamas County
- Excerpt: "As the State Senator from the heart of Clackamas County, I will work tirelessly to bring people together and find solutions for our families, farms, and forests."
