We need to protect and preserve Oregon’s environment. This involves balancing energy needs, fixing climate change and allocating resources.
Wildland fires are destroying homes and the timber industry and pollute our state and the planet. Measures are needed.
Health Care is a right; not a privilege.
Homelessness and illicit drug usage are chronic. These folks need shelter without the drugs and crime.
