Helfrich chosen as new Republican House Leader

Jeff Helfrich

The Dalles, Ore., Sept. 29, 2023 - Rep. Jeff Helfrich of Hood River was elected the new house leader on Tuesday, Sept. 26, replacing Rep. Vikki Breese-Iverson of Prineville, who announced last week that she was stepping down from the role.

"It is both an honor and privilege to be chosen to lead our caucus,” Helfrich said in a news release. “Oregon is in crisis. Residents are leaving because they can’t afford housing, they feel unsafe on our city streets and their taxes keep increasing. Inaction or failed action only makes the situation worse. The status quo must change.”
