3 things I will do if I win:

1. Ricki knows keeping our communities and families safe is job #1. establish more protections for crime victims and tougher penalties for hard drugs like fentanyl and meth.

2. Ricki knows the cost of living is too high. That’s why he’s working to stop utility rate hikes; helping working families reduce their tax burden; and fighting for access and funding for childcare

3. Ricki knows that investing in our youth pays huge dividends. That’s why he is making sure Oregon invests in our future by supporting working students and parents struggling with the high cost of childcare
