The Candidates
Although Oregon Action endorsements are nonpartisan, we must
acknowledge that every election, the number of moderate Republicans
whose record can win our endorsement is shrinking. This is not due to
a change in our position, but in a radicalization of the state Republican
party that is forcing moderates out. We encourage our many Republican
members to engage in party primaries to work to restore more moderates
to office and to party leadership.
Could you be an OA leader?
Any Oregon Action member can become a leader by attending
OA meetings and trainings and by volunteering on our campaigns. Oregon
Action is committed to leadership development and training, because
that is how we become stronger and more effective. Please join us.
