COMMUNITY LEADER, COMMUNITY CENTERED

Dear Neighbors:

Over the past two years, the pandemic has had seemingly endless effects on our lives, working families, small businesses, and the agricultural community.

I have seen how resilient our families and community have been, and I believe we have a chance to reimagine the direction our community rebuilds and grows.

My commitment is to get busy working. Below is a short list of my priorities:

Education:

As a mother, I believe in accessibility to childcare and quality education for all of Oregon’s children. We must invest in our schools, providing better support to teachers, staff, and students.

Housing:

Housing has reached an all time crisis in Oregon. The first home purchase has become out of reach. Rent is unaffordable. Limited housing has resulted in skyrocketing prices that hurt our working families. Oregon must expand housing opportunities.

Job Availability:

Let’s prioritize access to apprenticeship programs and affordable education options that provide prevailing wage jobs with benefits and a growing career. Whether someone pursues a career as a teacher, construction worker, postal worker, or a line chef, all Oregon workers are vital!

Mental Health:

COVID-19 has intensified Oregon's mental health crisis. Mental health services must be expanded and Oregon must invest in training and hiring more mental health professionals.

ABOUT JAMI CATE

I am the current State Representative for most of this district, a grass seed farmer from Lebanon, life-long Christian, long-time community volunteer, mountain climber and lover of all things rural Oregon.

“Representative Jami Cate is a champion for her district. She was our lead in wildfire recovery efforts, an outspoken leader on agriculture and timber issues, and an essential member of our team.”

Representative Vikki Breese Iverson

FIGHTING AGAINST GOVERNMENT OVERREACH

Government overreach is out of control, and we need leaders who fight to hold our State accountable and represent ALL Oregon—not just Portland.
