Whether it’s voting, the initiative process, drawing up the lines for redistricting house and senate boundaries, serving on the State Land Board or auditing our government, we have to remember the government is about the people. It’s not about making one party look good or the other party look bad. The job of Secretary of State is about giving everyone access to their government. Somewhere in the process of government, our professional politicians have forgotten a very important part of the process and that’s you, the citizens of Oregon. As Secretary of State I will never forget that I work for you, not a political party or any special interest group. My goal is to bring you back into the process. We are Oregon and “We the People” have the power to change what it looks like. My question is, do we have the will?
