If you value independence, respect, and integrity over unproductive partisanship, Arlene Burns is your choice for Oregon State Representative District 59. Three different parties have chosen Arlene as their candidate, and both of Oregon’s senators have endorsed Arlene. This is because Arlene understands that working together with people from different backgrounds and diverse points of view is the only way to solve the complex problems we face as a society.
Arlene will not play political games. She will stay in Salem and keep working until the work is done. She won’t let partisanship keep her from making wise decisions.
Having been a former judge for 22 years and a former District Attorney, I have had the
opportunity to observe the performance of the two DA candidates. As such, I strongly support Sean
Kallery for District Attorney
Sean has the integrity, intelligence, and experience to make a fantastic District Attorney for Hood River County.
We must demand a new baseline for honesty and integrity from our leaders to whom we give authority.
I’ve had the pleasure of working for Wasco County District Attorney Eric Nisley, as the Victim Assistance Coordinator for the past 20 years.
I am supporting Matthew Ellis because he has an excellent reputation for honesty and is a skilled criminal trial attorney.
I believed in his priorities: Support and fund public health to keep families safe; Increase affordable housing options; Invest in mental health services; Increase transparency and accountability in our county government; Better serve our Veterans.
Steve Kramer proposed our county pass a resolution against Cap and Trade and then he welcomed citizens to speak at the hearing.
