Do you remember how Oregon used to feel? Do you want that back?

I’m a 7th generation Oregonian and small business owner, NOT a politician. I was raised on a Baker County cattle ranch, which my family still operates.

The definition of insanity is repeating the same thing, and expecting different results. We don’t need another establishment politician. We need a qualified, COMMON SENSE, grassroots Republican nominee for governor – someone who understands the ENTIRE state. I’m that candidate.

I authored Resolution 3881 in 2021, which the national media called the “common sense sanctuary city” resolution, standing against the mandates, and forming a statewide coalition of officials to protect our communities in terms of economics, crime and mental health. In 2018, I helped author Baker County’s 2A Preservation Ordinance, and passed a 2A resolution at a city level this year. I located plaintiffs for the Elkhorn Baptist v. Kate Brown case, which temporarily lifted the emergency order.

I BELIEVE:

• We MUST protect the Second Amendment and defend the Constitution.
• Allowing our beautiful, valuable forests to burn annually is BAD management.
• Parents, NOT politicians, should control decisions that shape our children’s education.
• We should STAND WITH our police, NOT defund them.
• ENABLING our homeless DOESN’T WORK.
• The government has NO PLACE in our personal medical decisions.
• FAILED government and over-regulation cripple our businesses.
• The unborn are PRECIOUS assets and we must fight for them.
• THRIVING farmers, ranchers, loggers and miners equal a self-sufficient state.
• The rural-urban divide MUST END.
• FAIR elections are critical to keeping our republic.
• America is the SHINING LIGHT on the hill—and we have to fight to save her, state by state.

Oregon desperately needs a well-informed hard-working everyday citizen willing to use the governorship to enact progressive change.

I am a grassroots candidate unlike Kotek and Read, who are part of the elite Democratic establishment backed by special interests/big dollar corporate lobbyists. Too many Oregonians live the paycheck-to-paycheck struggle, just one financial disaster away from homelessness.

As an immigrant who gained citizenship through adoption, I learned at a very young age to be a fighter for rights, being born without arms and surrendered to an orphanage at birth.

To learn more about our progressive campaign visit https://www.trimbleforgov.com or call 503-383-9693 to speak with me directly.

I will never be caught sitting on my hands, as I will be working hard for you:

• Pro-Choice, Pro-Union, Pro-Environment, Pro-Racial Justice, Pro-LGBTQ+
• Forgive/make free in-state tuition/debt
• Grant state residental status to those without documentation to participate in state programs and pay taxes
• Pardon many nonviolent/nonsexual related former state convicts
• Expand OHP to all Oregonians regardless of income
• Curtail healthcare costs/prescription drug prices
• Subsidize medical tourism where/when appropriate
• Lower rents of middle-to-low-income by at least $100 at multi-unit apartment properties initially
• Cap rents of middle-to-low-income to 30% of their income ultimately in my first term
• Ban all rent related nonrefundable fees including application/pet fees
• Raise minimum hourly wage to $15
• Institute a living wage of $25 hourly at all companies reporting billion dollar plus earnings quarterly along with profit sharing
• Require all corporations pay a use-of-public-infrastructure tax
• Repeal bike excise tax replace with tax incentives/credits
• Earthquake retrofit infrastucture

I will defend our environment by improving accessibility of commuters on foot/bike or fare free 24/7 public-transit within our urban communities, and expanding safety distance to 6-feet for bikes. I will transition more cars to be electric/hydrogen by 2030. I will drive a massive reduction in cost of utilities while transitioning to renewables and weatherizing existing infrastructure.

Occupation: Mayor of Sandy; Insurance Executive

Occupational Background: Business, Marketing, Sales, and Administration

Educational Background: Bachelor of Science, University of Oregon

Prior Governmental Experience: Mayor of Sandy, 2019 to Present; Clackamas County Coordinating Committee; United States Conference of Mayors; Oregon Mayors Association; Legislative Director – Oregon State Legislature

Community Service: Board Member, Sandy Community Action Center; Board Member, Vietnam War Memorial Fund; Community Impact Award for Distinguished Service in Clackamas County

Leading the Fight Against Lockdowns

I orchestrated the statewide protest against lockdowns and led a lawsuit to overturn Governor Brown’s illegal mandates on restaurants, bars, gyms, and schools. Main Street Oregon has had no better advocate.

School Choice & Parental Rights First

My wife MacKensey and I formed the Oregon Moms Union to organize communities to fight back against out-of-control government bureaucrats and school boards mandating masks and vaccines, pushing Critical Race Theory, and silencing parents in public meetings. It’s one thing to believe in something – it’s another to do something about it.

Public Safety & Holding Criminals Accountable

As mayor, I expanded our police force while other cities defunded them. Enforcing existing laws and giving police the resources to do their jobs needs to be one of our highest priorities.

Plan to Handle Homelessness

I’m the only candidate to propose a plan to address the culture of criminality around tent and car camping—using state resources instead of being hamstrung by local governments and their far-left agendas.

Pro-Life, Pro-Gun Rights, Pro-Trump

I have a track record of being consistently pro-life and unshaking in my defense of our Second Amendment. President Trump’s policies on energy independence, supporting law enforcement and veterans, and bolstering our military made our country great again, and I plan to do the same for Oregon as your next governor.

Stan lives in Sandy with his wife MacKensey and their two daughters.

Occupation: Superintendent of schools

Occupational Background: 27-year public educator; Small business owner

Educational Background: Eastern Washington University: Masters in Educational Leadership; Whitworth University: Bachelors in History/Biology/Education

Prior Governmental Experience: Legislative policy advisor

I am a husband, father, educator, farmer, and long-time champion of students’ and parents’ rights. As the Alsea School Superintendent, I broke ranks to keep Alsea schools open full-time during the COVID shutdowns. In January, I implemented a Masks-Optional policy which sparked a movement, garnered national attention, and catalyzed an end date for indoor masking.

Oregon needs a courageous solutionist for complex problems, not another establishment politician.

I have fought government overreach and corruption my entire career. I uphold Constitutional and community values through service and responsiveness to the will of the people.

As your next governor, I will:

Restore Excellence in Education by:

• Re-implementing graduation standards, elevating academic expectations, and investing in special education;
• Insisting on parents’ rights in their child’s education;
• Ridding classrooms of political and social agendas/curricula;
• Championing school choice by directing tax dollars to follow the child.

Re-establish Community Safety and the Rule of Law by:

• Fully funding law enforcement and holding law-breakers accountable;
• Re-criminalizing drugs and cleaning up homeless camps;
• Addressing the homeless crisis through individualized support that treats ALL causative factors.

Empower Individual Freedom and Responsibility by:

• Ending any unconstitutional mandates and tracking systems;
• Breaking up the over-reaching Oregon Health Authority and restoring local control of healthcare to community care organizations;
• Codifying the sanctity of the patient-doctor relationship and full informed consent.

Revitalize Our Economy by:

• Re-establishing rights and resources to farmers, ranchers, loggers, and miners;
• Cutting taxes to small and medium businesses;
• Resurrecting our deep-water ports making Oregon the new gateway to the west, bringing workers back;
• Driving down inflation by lowering taxes and deregulating government.
