I’m Caleb Ticer, and I’m running for Oregon State Senate because I’m tired of watching politicians argue over who’s right while the problems around us keep getting worse. I’m not running to become another career politician. I’m running to make
government answer one simple question: Is this actually working?

My priorities are practical. I want better-managed forests, stronger local economies, more domestic food production, better access to education and books, responsible solutions to homelessness, and real accountability for how public money is spent. I want government to stop throwing money at problems without measuring whether the money actually solved anything.
I also believe political independence should be an advantage, not a liability.

I’ll work with Democrats, Republicans, Libertarians, and independents when the policy makes sense. I don’t owe a party my vote. I owe it to the people I represent.

And I don’t believe community service should begin and end with a campaign slogan. I’ve spent years doing the kind of work I believe government should help make possible: bringing people together, improving communities, expanding access to resources, and finding solutions that actually work. You don’t need another politician telling you what to think. You need someone willing to think, question, investigate, and act. That’s what I’m offering.
