Kulongoski for governor
As a student at the University, I believe that Oregonians should elect Ted Kulongoski as their next governor.
The budget crisis currently facing our state Legislature threatens to deny Oregon students the quality education that is potentially available to them. Our state is full of caring and talented teachers as well as students who will someday live up to the investment that Oregon citizens should be making in them.
Kulongoski supports sustainable and long-term funding solutions for Oregon schools. In addition to his plan to free $80 million from administration and put it into Oregon’s classrooms, he recognizes that it is the job of caring and truly patriotic citizens to support state programs and education. Kulongoski has repeatedly shown his dedication to serving the needs of all members of our communities, including youth.
For these reasons, Kulongoski is endorsed in his bid for governor by Oregon teacher groups and has earned the votes of students. A vote for Kulongoski this November is a vote for the future of Oregon and its children.
