Oregon deserves thoughtful leadership focused on practical solutions. Randall Fryer's priorities reflect the concerns he's heard from educators, employers, and community members across District 28. His commitment is to strengthen education, lower taxes, reduce unnecessary barriers to business growth, and bring greater accountability to state government.
Education is the foundation of opportunity. Oregon's students deserve schools where learning comes first, teachers are supported, parents have a meaningful voice, and classrooms prepare students for success in college, careers, military service, and civic life.
Support high expectations that prepare students to read, write, reason, solve problems, and graduate ready for life after high school.
Prioritize reading, writing, mathematics, history, and civics so students develop the knowledge and critical-thinking skills they need to succeed.
Ensure professional teachers have the authority, resources, and classroom environments needed to teach effectively.
Encourage meaningful parental involvement and strengthen the role of locally elected school boards in education decisions.
Education policy should be evaluated by student achievement and long-term outcomes, not simply by the amount of money spent.
Families and employers work hard for every dollar they earn. Government has a responsibility to spend taxpayer dollars wisely, avoid unnecessary costs, and remain accountable to the people it serves.
Advocate for policies that avoid placing additional financial burdens on Oregon families and businesses.
Carefully review state spending and prioritize programs that deliver meaningful value to taxpayers.
Support clear reporting so Oregonians understand how public funds are used and whether government programs are achieving their intended purpose.
Support responsible budgeting that maintains essential public services while improving efficiency and reducing waste where possible.
A healthy economy depends on businesses that can invest, hire, innovate, and grow. Oregon should encourage entrepreneurship while maintaining reasonable protections for workers, consumers, and the environment.
Support efforts to reduce unnecessary government micromanagement while preserving appropriate public safeguards.
Encourage policies that make Oregon's tax system easier for employers to understand and comply with.
Support more timely and predictable permitting so businesses can invest with greater certainty.
Promote policies that encourage entrepreneurship, attract investment, and help employers create better jobs throughout Oregon.
Recognize that small businesses and local employers are essential to thriving communities and economic opportunity.
Every decision should reflect the values that guide responsible public service.
Support policies that help keep Oregon communities safe while respecting individual rights and strengthening partnerships between local communities and law enforcement.
Communities understand their own needs. Parents, educators, local officials, and residents should have meaningful input into decisions that affect their schools and neighborhoods.
Government should be transparent, fiscally responsible, and accountable to taxpayers. Public service is a responsibility that requires careful stewardship of public resources.
Strong communities are built through participation. Whether you’d like to volunteer, attend an event, ask a question, or support the campaign, your involvement helps shape the future of District 28.
