Christine Drazan
Economy
On the economy, the plan proposes a day-one executive order directing state agencies to identify and suspend rules that raise the cost of housing, energy, food, transportation, childcare, healthcare, or business, an "affordability review" before adopting any new rule, repeal of Gov. Kotek's Climate Protection Program executive order, reform of the state's Corporate Activity Tax to reduce hidden consumer costs, and a $200 million fund for site readiness and infrastructure aimed at attracting semiconductor, manufacturing, and other traded-sector employers. It also proposes expanded apprenticeships and career-technical education tied to employer needs.
Agriculture/Food
The plan commits to protecting farmland from data-center development and prioritizing improved forest management to increase sustainable timber production, treating agriculture and food processing as priority traded-sector industries for economic development.
Security
On homelessness and addiction, the plan proposes a full audit of state homelessness and addiction spending, prioritizing recovery and long-term sobriety over what it calls enabling harm-reduction programs, increased penalties for drug traffickers, full funding for state police, and declaring a state of emergency on the addiction and mental-health crisis.
Education
On education, the plan proposes reinstating meaningful graduation requirements, ensuring third-grade reading proficiency before advancement, opting Oregon into a federal scholarship tax-credit program the campaign says could help more than 575,000 students access tutoring and other supports, giving teachers authority to remove persistently disruptive students, and strengthening special-education funding. It also commits to curriculum transparency and parental opt-out rights.
Infrastructure
On housing, the plan proposes a 120-day maximum decision period for qualifying housing projects, limits on repetitive appeals meant to delay construction, expanded use of private plan reviewers where government permitting is backlogged, a "Housing Permit Command Center" to coordinate agencies and enforce permitting deadlines, and a standardized statewide approval process for accessory dwelling units, manufactured, and modular homes. On data centers, it proposes required community-benefit agreements covering wildfire mitigation and infrastructure, and a ban on blanket nondisclosure agreements in data-center deals.
Governance
The plan proposes a new Office of Government Accountability to audit service delivery and find savings, an annual "Cost of Government Report" on agency fees and compliance burdens, reduced influence of unelected boards and commissions, rescinding executive orders it says expanded bureaucracy, and a public scorecard tracking job growth, business formation, permitting timelines, and other economic indicators.
