Overview:
Melissa was raised on the Oregon Coast, and her values are shaped by the hard-working people of our area. Melissa has spent her career serving her community as a small business owner, a lawyer, and Coos County Commissioner, and now she is ready to stand up for the Oregon Coast in the State Senate. Coastal communities haven’t experienced the same economic recovery as the rest of Oregon, and she’s ready to change that. As a State Senator, Melissa will work to bring economic growth to the Oregon coast through advocating for equitable access to affordable healthcare, adequate funding for public education, as well as expanding workers rights and job opportunities in Senate District 5. Melissa believes that together, we can improve our communities, not just for ourselves, but for our children and our future generations.
