"It is with mixed emotions that I am announcing that I am stepping down from my role as
Representative for Oregon House District 3. It has been an honor and a privilege to serve the
community that I grew up in. I have thanked God every day for being blessed with this
opportunity.
"I have truly loved being your voice in Salem and have appreciated getting to know the ins and
outs of the issues we face as Oregonians from a broader perspective. The issues we face here at
home when it comes to opioid addiction and homelessness are problems we are seeing across
the whole state, and getting to work with my colleagues to try and find sound solutions to these
problems over the last few years has been a pleasure."
"I have been given the opportunity to continue to serve Southern Oregon a little closer to home.
This opportunity would allow me to spend more time with my family, and to continue that
mission of service. I will truly miss being an advocate for my community and our values in
Salem, but ultimately, I must do what is best for myself and my family."
"I thank the voters who elevated me to this position. I trust the Commissioners will appoint a
replacement that exemplifies what the people voted for in November of 2022. I have had a long
road in public services, and while it is taking me away from the Legislature for now, I would be
remiss if I did not admit that I hope it one day will bring me back to Salem as your advocate."
