Dear Editor,
House District 11 voters have a fine candidate in Mark Herbert. Herbert has management experience, and he wants to control spending and tax increases for Oregon voters in the Oregon Legislature. Herbert has lived in our local area for several years. He believes in economic development, understands the need for a great educational system and values our local law enforcement community.
Herbert recognizes that homelessness is a growing issue for local businesses and residents. Homelessness is a complex issue that includes the need for new solutions involving mental health issues. In 2016, he was a volunteer coach for the Honor Foundation, an organization which assists transitioning Special Operations military personnel from military careers to civilian life.
House District 11 residents need strong representation in the Oregon Legislature to tackle important local issues. The best candidate for House District 11 Representative is Mark Herbert.
