My name is Victoria Ernst, and I am running to be your next State Representative.
I’m running to represent Oregon House District 24 because I want to ensure all Oregonians have equal access to opportunity and can exercise their fundamental rights. As a lawyer, I’ve fought to protect and promote fundamental rights. My legislative experience taught me how to negotiate and craft laws that solve problems without creating new ones or causing unintended consequences. I’ve learned that effective legislation has the power to create equal opportunities and equal access. As your next State Representative, I will work tirelessly to ensure that the legislation coming out of Salem protects and serves all of us.
Victoria Ernst is the Independent Party of Oregon nominee, the Democratic Party of Oregon nominee, and the Oregon Working Families Party nominee for House District 24.
