Dr. Cyrus Javadi: For a Better Tomorrow

My wife Annie, our five children, and I have lived in Tillamook for ten years, previously living in Astoria. I earned a degree in accounting, and I did financial and tax work before getting my dental degree. Now, I operate a small private dental practice.

My small business was forced to lay off nearly every single employee during the COVID lockdowns. I’m one of the lucky small business owners who was able survive and rehire our employees. Many never did.

I’m not a politician, I just believe it’s time for Oregonians to step up to save our great state!

Our North Coast Priorities

My top three priorities are local control, education, & public safety:

Local Control

“Cyrus is the kind of Republican who is both conservative and focused on the issues that we really care about on the North Coast, such as timber, fishing, farming, Highway 6 improvements, and broadband. Those are the problems that need our leaders’ attention!”

Katy Pritchard, Retired Army National Guard (Astoria)

Restoring School Choice

“We need more parents with school aged children serving in the Oregon Legislature. I know Cyrus will stand up for school choice and improve local public schools. Every family deserves to have educational opportunities that best fit their children.”

Courtney Bangs, Parent, Teacher, & Clatsop County Commissioner

Protecting Our Communities

"I know Cyrus will strive to build safer communities by fighting against the efforts of politicians who want to defund local police and refuse to hold criminals and those that harm others accountable."

Occupation: Client Intake Coordinator – Stoel Rives LLP

Occupational Background: Compliance, Daimler Trucks; Sales/Customer Service, Dollar Tree

Educational Background: Master Professional Studies, George Washington University; Bachelor of Arts (Criminal Justice, minor Political Science), Seattle University; Beaverton High School

Prior Governmental Experience: Beaverton Human Rights Advisory Commission (2014-2019)

Farrah Fights for Human Rights!

Promised opportunities are not available to many of us because the status quo has prioritized corporate greed over human need. With your support, I will fight to guarantee every Oregonian’s vital needs are met.

The rising cost of housing hurts working families, our economy, and leaves thousands of our neighbors homeless. Bringing down the cost of housing by expanding renter protections and establishing a right to rest will be my highest priority.

So many in our community still can’t afford the healthcare they need. I will fight for a single-payer – Medicare for All style – system so you don’t have to worry about costs or fighting insurance companies when you need healthcare.

Climate change is no longer a problem of the future, as recent extreme weather events show. We need a just green transition that addresses the whole picture by regulating big polluters, creating good jobs, and providing safe landing places for workers in fossil fuel industries.

Community leaders endorsing Farrah:

“I’ve known Farrah from her time on the Human Rights Advisory Committee. She has always been an unrelenting advocate for human rights and she shows up time and time again for candidates and her community. I’m proud to show up for her and endorse her for House District 35.” Lacey Beaty, Mayor of Beaverton

Travis Nelson for State Representative
The Progressive We Need for North and Northeast Portland

As a nurse for the last 18 years, I think about our personal health, our civic health, our planet’s health and the health of our public systems. Covid-19 has proven that many of the safety nets we rely on are frayed and vulnerable. This is a wake up call we must answer, and that is why I am running to be your voice in Salem.

As Your State Representative I’m Fighting For:

  • Housing for All: There is a humanitarian crisis on our streets. We must deliver additional shelter, mental health and substance abuse services, permanent supportive housing, and affordable housing for every neighborhood.
  • Healthcare for All: We need low or no-cost healthcare and prescriptions. That extends to protecting every woman's access to quality reproductive healthcare.
  • Supporting Schools: We must invest in schools to address workforce shortages and ensure students have a safe environment to learn in five days a week.
  • Equity: As the only Black man in the Oregon State House and the first Black, LGBTQ+ person to serve in the State Legislature, I will bring voice to communities who haven’t historically had a seat at the table.

/in /by

I have lived in Oregon most of my life. My parents divorced when I was young, so I spent much of my time as a child coming back and forth between Oregon and California. When in Oregon, I called the beautiful city of Keizer home. I attended Gubser Elementary, Whiteaker Middle School, and McNary High School in Keizer. I have always loved being in Oregon and enjoying all the outdoors activities we have available. In my free time I enjoy snowboarding, recreational shooting, and training Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. When the weather is nice, I can always be found out at Detroit Lake.

After graduating high school, I joined the Oregon Army National Guard as a Combat Medic. In 2006 I deployed to Afghanistan with Oregon’s 41st Infantry Brigade Combat Team. Upon completion of that deployment, I opted to stay on Active Duty. When I returned to Oregon, I purchased my home in Aumsville, where I still currently live, and resumed my service with the Oregon National Guard. I deployed a second time with the Oregon National Guard to Afghanistan in 2011 with the 1249th Engineer Battalion. While deployed I began pursuing my undergraduate degree in Health Care Education. During this time, I was also awarded the Combat Medical Badge and the Bronze Star Medal. I returned to Oregon, but shortly after returned to Afghanistan to work as a Protective Security Specialist at the US Embassy in Kabul. I completed my undergraduate degree and began pursuing my Master of Business Administration with a concentration in Healthcare Administration. Lingering injuries from my combat deployments necessitated my return to the United States, where I would subsequently receive multiple major spinal surgeries due to these injuries.

While home and recovering I pursued several academic and professional goals, including facilitating 3 successful recalls of City Council Members in Aumsville and running for Mayor. Now in my second term as Mayor I am choosing to continue serving my community by running for House District 17. I believe that I am the voice the canyon community needs in the House of Representatives. Much of my time as Mayor has been focused not only on the City of Aumsville, but on the canyon community. During the Santiam Fire in 2020 I was able to utilize my social media platforms to ensure concise and correct information was being relayed to members of the community, stood up a donation center with one of our local churches, and worked with several members of the community to stand up a fundraiser for the Santiam Canyon Wildfire Relief Fund. During the February Freeze of 2021, the City of Aumsville opened our community center to be used as a warming shelter for members of the canyon community that were without heat, power, and warm meals. I was honored to be selected as the recipient of the Oregon Mayors Association “Mayor’s Award of Merit” in the medium city category in July of 2021. I plan to continue all these efforts to support the canyon community as a member of the Oregon House of Representatives.

Occupation: CEO & Founder Bambuza Hospitality Group

Occupational Background: Restaurant owner/worker

Educational Background: BA, Puget Sound; MBA, Marylhurst University

Prior Governmental Experience: Lake Oswego City Council; Council President 2021; Governor’s Asia Trade Mission Delegate 2015 & 2018

Community Service: Director, Immigration Counseling Service Board; Co-Chair, PCC School of Business Advisory Board – 2018 – Present

Experience • Determination • Results

My wife Katherine and I founded our restaurant business 19 years ago based on family traditions, and the values of integrity, stewardship, and community. We started with very little, but through the years we used our experience and determination to build and grow, getting positive results, even during the pandemic.

As the son and husband of immigrants, I want to be sure that everyone has the same opportunities Katherine and I did. And that isn’t happening now. We need leaders with real world problem solving skills who will act with urgency to build a better future for all of us.

When something isn’t working we shouldn’t say, “let’s keep doing the same thing and see if the problem goes away”. As your State Representative, I will ask, I will listen, and I will collaborate to change our systems to get better outcomes for you and all Oregonians.

We must act with urgency!

  • Prioritize community safety, increased shelter and housing, more treatment for mental health, addiction, and prevention.
  • Create economic opportunity for more Oregonians by investing in training and apprenticeship programs to fill current and future worker shortages in the skilled trades and healthcare.
  • Grants and loans for small business start-ups.
  • Affordable childcare and preschool for all Oregon children.

Occupation: Public Works Operations Manager

Occupational Background: Almost 20 years in Drinking Water Industry

Educational Background: Gresham High School, Diploma, Mount Hood Community College, Psychology, Portland Community College, Business

Prior Governmental Experience: Troutdale Mayor, 2021 – Present, Troutdale City Councilor, 2016 – 2020, Troutdale Budget Committee, East County SAFER Council, Metropolitan Mayors Consortium, Oregon Mayors Association, East Multnomah County Transportation Committee

Randy Lauer, Values You Can Believe In

We need a State Representative that will fight for the needs of East County in Salem, while working tirelessly to ensure everyone’s voices are heard and respected.

SERVING THE COMMUNITY

As a former City Councilor and the current Mayor of Troutdale, Randy has made it his purpose to bring his hometown a brighter and more community-focused future, with practical development and transcendent ideas.

HOMELESSNESS EPIDEMIC

We can no longer stand by as we allow government agencies to continue to tax us for hundreds of millions of dollars with zero accountability. Randy will be working towards legislation to hold Metro, Multnomah County, and The Joint office of Homeless Services to their word. The homeless, the business owners, and homeowners deserve honest representation.

PUBLIC SAFETY

Randy will work to support the men and women on the frontlines, to help ensure the safety and security of Fairview, Wood Village, North Gresham, and Troutdale, through strong partnerships, persistent communication, and meaningful action from Salem.

PANDEMIC RESPONSE

Medical mandates and regulations are irrational and simply unacceptable. Randy will be the leader that Oregon needs to fight the overreach that could come again from the State, Oregon Health Authority, and OSHA. Randy will fight to keep businesses open, our kids unmasked and in school, and will remind the Legislature what it means to be a free American.

It is time to take a stand for the safety and wellbeing of East County and demand better results and support from our State government.
