Our schools are failing our children and we need new thinking to help parents get better education choices for their children.
Measure 110 that essentially decriminalized illicit drugs in Oregon either needs repealed or we need to pursue full decriminalization to include manufacture, distribution and sales of illicit drugs. Managing the monies while allowing contaminated poison to be sold won't work.
Tim LeMaster (R)
Our state has repeatedly wasted money in instances such as the unemployment system that collapsed early COVID or the hundreds of millions wasted for the Affordable Care Act "Obamacare" computer system.
The state took a heavy handed approach in shutting down our schools for nearly 2 years despite contrasting data from countries such as Sweden that children were not affected or carriers in the way we initially feared. Our governor even shutdown private online schools who clearly were not a threat to spread COVID.

This needs to be fixed and it needs to be fixed by discussing common values and principles and working to honestly put political power at the lowest levels possible allowing the diverse communities we have here to operate as they see fit to govern themselves.
Tim LeMaster (R)
This seat has been decided by democrat primary voters the past 18 years. That is bad no matter what side of the aisle you may sit.
Every incumbent should be challenged by members of their own parties in the party as well as opposing parties in the general election.
All incumbents should be called out to defend their decisions and actions in office and let the people decide if the incumbent should stay or go based on that defense.
