Marion County Republicans - Precinct #403

Hello Neighbors!

We are so excited for the CD 6 Candidates Forum next week and hope you are planning to join us! There are 14 people campaigning to become our next Congressional House Representative in Oregon's new CD 6, and six of them will be here to share with us why they will be the best person for the job. We are fortunate to be able to meet and hear from them right here in Keizer, so we can make a good decision about who will go to Washington DC to represent us. Here are the details:

Tuesday, March 8, 2022
6:00 - 8:00 p.m.
Keizer Civic Center
930 Chemawa Road NE
Keizer, OR 97303

Master of Ceremonies: Dan Kohler, Keizer City Councilor

Candidates:
Teresa Alonzo Leon (D)
Ron Noble (R)
Angela Plowhead (R)
Steven Cody Reynolds (D)
David Russ (R)
Loretta Smith (D)

Agenda:
6:00 - 6:30 p.m. Arrive, snacks, beverages, and time to mingle

6:30 - 7:00 p.m. Each candidate introduces themselves and their goals and strategies for representing the people in Oregon's new Congressional House District 6 (5 minutes each).

7:00 - 8:00 p.m. Questions from the neighborhood associations and audience members. Each candidate will have different questions. We're hoping for each candidate to be able to answer 3-4 questions. We'll keep strict time and will signal when 10 seconds remain (2 minutes each).

8:00 Adjourn

Attendees will be able to write their questions on 3x5 cards when you arrive, and the hosts will choose the questions from those submitted. So, please be thinking of questions you'd like to ask the candidates. Our Master of Ceremonies, Dan Kohler, will ask the candidates the questions.

Hosted by:
Greater Gubser Neighborhood Association

Hey, everyone! We’re doing our in-demand Biblical Citizenship class online, starting January 18, 7-9 pm via Zoom, each Tuesday for 8 weeks. Sign up! You will love the valuable information and become confident in understanding our Constitution.

Biblical Citizenship Class – Online – Constitution IQ Project After 10+ years being involved in politics, one thing has become painfully evident. We are in a culture war even more so than a political fight. Political parties are vehicles that motivated individuals can use to effect change in our governance. But to get people to vote for your position or party....

Marion County Central Committee meeting tomorrow night, doors open at 6:00, meeting begins at 6:30. So important to show up! See you soon! Let me know if you need details.

The Keizer Police Department will be closing River Rd N on Saturday December 11, 2021 for the Keizer Holiday Lights Parade.

Lockhaven Dr N will be closed at 3:00 p.m. to all traffic between River Rd N and McClure St N to establish the parade staging area.

River Rd N will be closed to all north and southbound traffic starting at approximately 6:00 p.m. from Plymouth Dr NE to Lockhaven Dr N. The northbound River Rd traffic will be diverted to Cherry Ave NE via Plymouth Dr NE. Southbound River Rd traffic will be diverted eastbound onto Lockhaven Dr NE.

Prior to the parade kick off, traffic will be periodically allowed to cross River Rd at Chemawa Rd.

The Keizer Holiday Lights parade will begin at 7:00 p.m. and will proceed southbound on River Rd N from Lockhaven Dr N. The parade will end at the intersection of River Rd and Glynbrook St N. It is expected that River Rd will begin to re-open around 9:00 p.m. as the parade proceeds south.

Parade signs advising of the street closure have been posted on River Rd to remind citizens of the future closure.

Special day for PCP’s coming up on Thursday! We will meet as a group to hear from candidates who want to be considered to finish out Rep Bill Post’s term in HD 25. We will vote and put forward the top 3-5 candidates. Then the County Commissioners from Marion and Yamhill counties will make the final decision. PCP’s are the grassroots of our party and in these situations have serious responsibilities to help select the best people to represent us.

Keizer must update the Housing Development Code per two new laws; we have some flexibility when implementing requirements, and we need as much community input as possible. Please complete this survey when you get a moment! Thank you in advance! https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/0eced99bed6a4c9e8f73401e5175307d

Marion County Central Committee meeting tomorrow, Thursday, 6:30 p.m. VFW. Be there or be square!😊

I was so inspired by the Republican wins in Virginia this week, and it gave me hope for Oregon!! We need to elect the right candidates for every office, and it takes money to get them there. I'm volunteering for Angela Plowhead who is running for our new Congressional District 6. She's an Airforce Vet, a doctor, a wife and mom, and she will represent our voices--not special interests. Would you please come to her fundraiser dinner Monday night, Nov 8? Let me know, and I'll send you the details and link to register.

Hope to see you there!!

Biblical Citizenship class. Peoples Church, Salem, 11:30 a.m. Join us this Sunday!

Urgent call to action: Can you write an email in support of our Marion County Commissioners for a resolution requesting local decisions be made regarding masks for students in the upcoming school year? If so, it's due by Tuesday, August 10, at 4pm. Please send a brief note, addressed to the Marion County Commissioners, Commissioners Cameron, Bethell, and Willis. Subject: 8/11/21 BOC Meeting Public Comment. To: [email protected]

Even better, show up in person, Wednesday morning, August 11, 9:00 a.m., 555 Court St NE, Salem!

The resolution requests Governor Brown leave masking decisions to local schools and requests that no resources be expended in enforcing any mask mandates.

A sample note could simply say the following, but please feel free to customize your message: " I support our local schools making the best decisions for our students in regards to masking and other scientifically-based mitigation efforts as they relate to COVID-19. I appreciate the Commissioners' work to resist state-wide mandates that may not be in the best interest of our local community.

Yours sincerely,

Full Name, City of Residence"

Thank you in advance for taking 5 minutes to make a big impact for our students!

Baker City Fights Back Eastern Oregon town declares crisis

This effort helps cities and counties stand against unconstitutional mandates. The petition provides our elected leadership with the evidence that their constituents WANT them to take a stand. Sign the petition and share, share, share! Print them out and host a table somewhere to gather signatures. Businesses can have them available for people to sign. Think about the Resolution Baker City passed—this is similar to that. Let me know if you want to talk and strategize!

Please take your ballots to a drop box—no more mailing. 🇺🇸

In the May Primary, Democratic SOS candidate Mark Hass said he supported Independent Redistricting. Groups that oppose transparent government then spent a fortune to prop up Shemia Fagan, who in a May 2020 interview with the Oregonian, wouldn't go on record supporting a process that would let PEOPLE, not politicians, draw legislative lines.

This weekend, after lying to newspapers about who was funding her race, this "little" contribution shows up in campaign finance reports.

$100,000 from a PARTISAN organization whose sole purpose is to have a redistricting process that favors Democratic lawmakers over fair lines that favor all citizens.

Let me repeat. $100,000 from one out of state Washington DC organization whose sole existence is to elect people who will gerrymander lines for one party over another.

It's shocking. And it's unacceptable.

I'm proud to have not taken money from groups like this. I'm proud 99% of my funds are LOCAL dollars. I'm committed to a redistricting process that isn't the Secretary of State drawing the lines in a back room with a Sharpie while special interest donors direct traffic on which way the lines will get drawn.

Now we see the truth about why she's running. And thank goodness we see this BEFORE ballots drop.

Folks, next week, you can vote for fairness, transparency and accountable government. Or you can vote for someone who wants to put a FOR SALE sign in front of our elections process. It's a pretty clear choice. Shemia is outspending me over 3-to-1...let's not reward her lies and special interest, out-of-state donors.

Please SHARE SHARE SHARE so voters have a chance to see the truth.

I'm going to be walking around the neighborhood delivering this info today:

Hello Neighbors!

I’m your local elected Precinct Committee Person, and my main job is to encourage everyone to vote! We only have 23 days until the General Election, and it’s critical that we all make our voices heard. Let’s aim for 100% of us voting!! EVERY VOTE MATTERS! Key dates:

• October 13: Last day to register to vote.
• October 14-20: Ballots are mailed to us.
• October 26: Try to get your completed ballot in the mail by this day or earlier. Good news—postage is pre-paid!!
• November 3: Ballots must be received by 8:00 p.m. If you don’t feel comfortable with mailing your ballot—drop it in a Ballot Box any time prior to November 3, at 8:00 p.m. There is one conveniently located at City Hall, 930 Chemawa Road, NE, Keizer.

As Republicans, we’re at a severe disadvantage in Oregon because both the Oregon House and Senate have a super majority of Democrats, plus the Governor is a Democrat. This effectively means that the Democrats can pass any legislation without a single Republican vote. So, all of us who voted for our Republican representatives have no voice at all. This is not how our governance is supposed to be. A one-party rule is not good for Oregon. We need to regain balance, with, if not an equal number of Democrat and Republican legislators, at least a more balanced mix so that all Oregonians are represented.

Here are the people I urge you to vote for:

• Keizer City Council: Kyle Juran, Ross Day, and Laura Reid
• Keizer Mayor: Mayor Cathy Clark
• Congressional District 5: Amy Ryan Courser
• House District 25: Representative Bill Post
• Secretary of State: Senator Kim Thatcher
• Treasurer: Jeff Gudman
• Marion County Commissioner: Danielle Bethell
• Marion County Soil and Water Board Zone 1 Director – Write in Linda Saylor
• Judge of the Supreme Court Position 4: Write in Kevin Mannix
• Judge of the Court of Appeals Position 9: Write in Kevin Mannix

For other judges, please Google them and read stories about how they typically rule. These are critical positions, and many of them have been appointed by Governor Brown. This gives even more power to Democrats, when what we need are checks and balances across the 3 branches of government.

Thank you, and please let me know if you have any questions at all!

Warm regards,

Jane Herb
