ABOUT GINA MUNSTER MOORE

My family and I moved to Northwestern Hillsboro back in 1974. We landed on a small 8 acre farm in Helvetia. This was when Hillsboro had addresses like Route 61-S. We finally were able to buy horses, chickens and ducks. I grew up taking part in horse 4-H. I started my first year in the Hillsboro School district at West Union Elementary. I was a Washington County Junior Rodeo Court Princess in 1978.

I have two grown daughters and own a small business in Hillsboro.

FIGHTING FOR WESTERN WASHINGTON COUNTY

We must have a strong voice for our Forest Grove, Cornelius and West Hillsboro area. I will not be “just” another vote for the Governor or Democrat leadership, instead I will work to represent the people here, not Portland.

SUPPORTING SMALL BUSINESS

Our community is made up of a large amount of small businesses. I will be a fierce advocate in helping them be successful. Helping them keep employees, lowering their tax burden, and removing harmful regulations.

PROTECTING THE COMMUNITY

We must be supporting our local police departments and fire departments. I will be a strong advocate for our police departments so they have the resources to keep our community safe.

LOCAL CONTROL AND STANDARDS FOR EDUCATION

There needs to be a check and balance in our education system, that is local control of our school boards. Salem should not be dictating what our local school board can handle themselves. I will also push for achievable standards in our education system.

WORKING FOR MEANINGFUL TRANSPORTATION STRATEGIES

We must invest in better streets and transportation corridors in West Washington County. With the increased number of people moving to our communities, we need to help our local cities with funding.

I know this district.

As a fifth-generation Oregonian, born and raised in Newberg, I know this district – its residents, challenges, and opportunities. I volunteer with YCAP, NWSDS, and McMinnville’s Budget Committee, working to find solutions for the residents of Yamhill County. As your next Representative, I will go to work finding solutions for the residents of District 24.

I am passionate about improving people’s lives.

I became a lawyer to make a difference in people’s lives. Abroad, I fought to protect democracy, counter extremism, and promote human rights. When I moved back, I was shocked to see those values under attack here. We are facing extremism, division, and systemic injustices. I am running to protect the principles of democracy and ensure that all Oregonians have a voice and a place in Oregon.

I have the right experience.

I am passionate about Oregon, and I have governmental experience working with US Congress, the European Union Parliament, and the UN International Law Commission. I am a lawyer, and I understand the importance of crafting targeted, effective legislation. I work hard, and I will get things done for this district.

As your Representative, I will work to promote:

• Access to democracy, including countering extremism and protecting human rights;
• Access to a fair economy that serves all Oregonians;
• Access to affordable housing;
• Access to healthcare, including access to women’s healthcare and mental healthcare;
• Access to a healthy environment;
• Access to quality public education; and
• Access to justice, including adequate funding for civil legal aid and Oregon’s immigration and public defender systems.

Please vote for me to be your next Representative. Together, we can ensure District 24 serves us all fairly.

Occupation: Healthcare Administration

PERSONAL:

In 2016 our family moved to Newberg to raise our three children and serve the community we love.

AWARDS:

• Emilie Gamelin Service Award, Providence, 2017
• Citizen of the Year, Chehalem Valley Chamber of Commerce, 2020
• Values in Action Service Award, Providence, 2021
• Community Heroes Award, Pamplin Media Group, 2021

WHY I’M RUNNING:

Politics has become a zero-sum game, separating friends and neighbors. Polarization has left little room for dialogue and debate. We need to come together and foster trust towards a common vision of shared values. That which divides us must not define us. “Meet me in the middle” does not mean the abandonment of personal conviction; rather, the invitation to conversation, recognizing our shared values, and compromising when possible.

PRIORITIES:

• FREEDOM TO BELONG: Every person deserves affirmation to thrive as the truest form of themselves.
• COVID-19 COMEBACK: We need rural economic solutions; empowering and strengthening our industries and resources.
• ACCESS TO HEALTHCARE: Access is limited, cost is unaffordable, and healthcare workers are burned out. We need someone from the trenches to help reimagine healthcare.
• AFFORDABLE HOUSING: We need bipartisan, non-metro-based solutions, allowing our children to live in our community in the future.
• PUBLIC EDUCATION: It’s time to give our youth the education and support they need by revamping the funding structure.
• REINVESTMENT IN PUBLIC SAFETY: We must upport law enforcement by resourcing mental health and addiction access, creating shelter for those experiencing houselessness, and equipping officers with the training they deserve.
• SOLUTIONS FOR AGRICULTURE: Decisions should be made by farmers and farm workers in our rural community. It will take a member of the super majority to challenge the super majority for a seat at the table.

Family and Community Centered

Anthony was the first person in his family to graduate high school and college. He knows the value of a dollar and that too many families are struggling with the rising costs of housing, healthcare and childcare. In the legislature, Anthony will address the cost of living, so families can focus less on getting by and more on building a better future.

Raised in this district – attending schools in Woodburn, Gervais, Brooks, and Salem/Keizer – Anthony knows our communities.

Investing in Education and Economic Opportunity

Our children are our future. As a father of three, and lifelong advocate for public education, Anthony has led initiatives to provide additional funding for K-12 schools and classrooms. In Salem, he will strongly support public schools, create more pathways to college, and invest in skills training programs.

“Anthony is a leader who can proudly represent and reflect HD 22. As the Chair of the Woodburn School Board, he led the district through some of the toughest times in the history of public education. I look forward to watching his impact on this district and the state of Oregon” – Representative Teresa Alonso Leon

Accessible and Affordable Healthcare

With firsthand experience navigating a complex healthcare industry through a family crisis, Anthony will fight for Oregonians to have access to quality and affordable healthcare.

Anthony and his wife Yadira live in Woodburn with their three daughters.
