Get to Know Your Senate President.

Oregon Democrats have failed us on every front. Our public schools rank 47th in nation and the majority of our kids can’t read and write at grade level. We have one of the highest crime and murder rates in the nation. We have one of the highest rates of drug use and overdose deaths in the nation. We are one of the highest population of homelessness in the nation. And, to add insult to injury, we are the 5th most expensive state in the nation to live in, simply because we are overtaxed. We got this way largely because of Senate Majority Leader Rob Wagner. He worked with Tina Kotek, Kate Brown and Multnomah County DA Mike Schmidt to engineer the humanitarian crisis we are all experiencing today.

I have been fighting back against the ideology of those named above since 2020 when I lost my family businesses in Portland. After two long years of fighting as a Civil Rights Activist, I finally got the chance to challenge Rob Wagner for his senate seat. There will only be one debate between Wagner and I. It took place at the Willamette Week Headquarters and was moderated by Mark Zusman. You can watch it in its entirety here. But to quickly understand the differences between me and Rob Wagner, I’ve provided highlights of nearly every topic we covered.
