(Hermiston, OR) – Mike Mathisen, Candidate for State Representative in House District 58, today announced his endorsements from four leading grassroots groups in Oregon: Oregon Right to Life, Oregon Anti-Crime Alliance, Common Sense for Oregon and FreedomWorks.
“I am very happy to have received the endorsements from these four groups,” stated Mathisen. “These organizations and their members truly represent core values and beliefs in our area and their support and endorsement of my campaign for State Representative against the incumbent means a great deal.”
Oregon Right to Life is a pro-life grassroots group dedicated to protecting innocent human life and providing education on life issues such as abortion and infanticide. Oregon Anti-Crime Alliance seeks to reduce crime and enhance public safety by bringing Oregon’s citizens together to reform Oregon’s government and policies. Common Sense for Oregon works to increase government transparency and fight wasteful government spending. FreedomWorks believes individual liberty and the freedom to compete increases consumer choices and provides individuals with the greatest control over what they own and earn.
“It is time for the people of this district to have a State Representative who truly represents their concerns and not the agendas of lobbyists and special interest groups,” Mathisen said. “Having these organizations and their members in Eastern Oregon endorse my candidacy is a validation of the ideas and values I believe in and have been hearing from people in this district throughout this campaign.”
“Mike Mathisen fits this district and the people of Eastern Oregon will be well-served when they elect him as their next State Representative,” said Gayle Atteberry, Executive Director for Oregon Right to Life. “The people of House District 58 finally have a choice when they vote for State Representative and we believe they should choose Mike Mathisen.”
