BRAD WITT UNDERSTANDS WHAT'S IMPORTANT
Good Schools
Good Paying Jobs
Keeping our Families Safe
Cut Wasteful Government Spending
As a committed steward of your hard earned dollars, I will find efficiencies in state budgets and use the savings for health care and public education.
Access to Affordable Health Care
Too many families are a medical emergency away from bankruptcy. I will fight to make health care and prescription drug coverage more affordable.
Put School Funding Back into the Classrooms
Wasteful school spending can be reduced by $100 million through the creation of a health insurance pool for school employees. That money can then be put back into the classrooms, where it belongs.
Good Jobs and the Environment
We can have our cake and eat it, too. I will continue to be your voice in Salem for good jobs and a strong economy, safe and vibrant communities and a healthy natural environment.
Keep Our Communities Safe
I support putting 100 State Troopers back on the job, enhanced penalties for ID theft, and true "three-strikes" prison time for predatory sex offenders.
Anchored by the values that Oregonians hold dear, I promise to work with my colleagues to provide practical solutions to improve the everyday lives of our citizens. I pledge to put people over politics.
