What We Stand For
The Oregon Way is guided by timeless principles. They are the commitments that shape the leaders and communities we support.
Family as the Foundation
Strong families are the roots of a thriving Oregon. They are where values are taught, dreams are nurtured, and the next generation is prepared for the future. The Oregon Way stands for strengthening families because when families thrive, communities thrive — and Oregon’s spirit is renewed.
Safety and Justice
Every Oregonian deserves peace of mind, and every child deserves safe streets. Public safety is not a privilege; it’s a moral duty. We support leaders who protect neighborhoods, uphold order, and ensure that every community across Oregon remains a safe place to live, work, and raise a family.
Education and Aspiration
Schools should open doors, not close them. Every child — regardless of background or zip code — deserves the chance to learn, dream, and lead. The Oregon Way backs leaders who fight for schools that build character, reward effort, and prepare the next generation to rise higher and lead stronger.
Work and Opportunity
Hard work should lead to dignity, not frustration. Every taxpayer deserves respect, and every small business deserves room to grow. Oregon’s economy should reward effort, not punish it. The Oregon Way supports leaders who are committed to fiscal responsibility, entrepreneurship, and the promise that in Oregon, anyone willing to work can get ahead.
Unity and Hope
Division weakens us; unity strengthens us. Oregon is at its best when people of every background come together around fairness, courage, and common sense. The Oregon Way believes in leaders who choose action over rhetoric, solutions over politics, and hope over fear — because Oregon’s strength lies in what we share, not what divides us.
Our Commitment
These are the pillars of a renewed Oregon. The Oregon Way is committed to turning these values into action by supporting commonsense leaders in the close races that will shape our state’s destiny. Starting in Salem and the surrounding communities, we are rebuilding trust, restoring leadership, and reclaiming Oregon for the families who make it home.
