Campaign themes

Moro's voter guide highlighted the following issues:

A Voice for All of Us

The largest corporations and richest individuals are already well-represented at the State Capitol in Salem. I will be a voice for the rest of us.

  • A voice for small businesses and family farms that need a healthy local economy so they have customers with money to spend.
  • A voice for better paying jobs in growing sectors like solar power and making our homes and businesses more energy efficient.
  • A voice for working families, seniors, and young people who need affordable housing, health care, and transportation.
  • A voice for quality schools, and affordable higher education so students aren’t buried in debt.
  • A voice for nurses, teachers, firefighters and others who serve our communities.
  • A voice for taxpayers who deserve high quality services, accountability and a fair system where large corporations pay their fair share.[1]
