To The Editor:
I support Dave Drotzmann for Oregon Senate District 29. I first met Dave when we served together on the Hermiston School District Board of Directors, more than 20 years ago. Since then I have seen his commitment to our Eastern Oregon values through his leadership as Mayor of Hermiston, his involvement, commitment and leadership within the League of Oregon Cities and in many other capacities like supporting high school sports, raising funds for the local football/track stadium or helping to raise funding to build the new Funland Playground.
He not only understands the importance of our natural resources to the economy, stability and livability of our region, but also sees the value of our food, fiber and energy to support our state and country. He also supports the rights of gun ownership, believes government should be held accountable for every dollar spent, and also important to me, is pro-life.
During these past 20 years I have seen a man with the passion to serve. He is thoughtful, creative, honest and hardworking. He thinks out of the box, is collaborative, and a very good problem solver, all characteristics sorely needed in Salem these days. He will be a strong voice for eastern Oregon and he will represent Eastern Oregon exceptionally well. For those and many other reasons please join me in voting for Dave Drotzmann for Senate District 29.
Phil Hamm, Hermiston
