Get StartedParents, not schools, not government, are responsible for the upbringing of children. No one loves your child like you do! Publicly funded curriculum should be transparent and readily available for public review. Lesson plans should be available to parents upon request. No secrets. No red tape. With the exception of criminal neglect or abuse; school nurses, counselors, and other staff should not insert themselves between parents and their children. Learn more
Student data must be carefully protected. It should be fully transparent to parents, yet remain confidential and under local control. It should never be sold or otherwise available to non-essential third-parties without express consent of the parent. Student data should never be used for any kind of “social score,” consumer profiling or marketing. Learn more
Parents should be free to peacefully object at School Board meetings without fear of being labeled a “domestic terrorist” or other retribution. Parent involvement in their child’s education should be encouraged. School Choice! End the public school monopoly. Allow vouchers for private schools and tax credit for home school. Learn more

Compared to many states, low Medicaid reimbursements, coupled with a high cost of living, make Oregon an un-attractive place for general practitioners. Let’s create tax incentives to off-set the high cost of living to bring more doctors to Oregon. This can happen at both the state and county levels. Learn more
A Hand Up, not a Hand Out. Offer help to those who want to get back on their feet. Stop current policies that enable and promote homelessness, creating an endless dependency on your tax dollars. Learn more
Affordable housing shouldn’t require government programs. Rather, inflation, high interest rates, and excessive taxation need to be brought under control. Home ownership should be in reach of working-class citizens. NGO’s can be utilized to provide transitional housing for those who are trying to get back on their feet. Learn more
During this season of unprecedented inflation, we need to lower the tax burden rather than increase it. No New Taxes or “Revenue Enchantments” - including Tolls - without voter approval. Learn more
