TOGETHER WE CAN MAKE MULTNOMAH COUNTY GOVERNMENT BETTER!

Find new funding for the Counties Willamette bridges

Open the Wapito Jail only if the voters approve the funding

The Commissioners need the work with Chair, Sheriff, and the District Attorney in improve the Justice System

Need to co-ordinate private and public resources to make sure our seniors are taken care of

These are just few things at the head of my list of priorities. The economy seems to be on a down turn and revenues will be hard to come by at all levels of government. We will need to see that our tax dollars are spent wisely. We must guard against the undue influence of special interests. I do not accept contributions from Political Action Committees (PAC's) or Lobbyist. Additional information is available on my website electwes2008.com.
