Jeff Helfrich

Thank you, Senate District 26! I’m honored by your trust and grateful for the opportunity to serve you in the Oregon Senate. Throughout this campaign, I heard from Oregonians who want us to get back to basics: lower costs, safer communities, and real solutions to the challenges families face every day. That’s the work I’ll keep fighting for in Salem. To my family, our volunteers, and everyone who supported this campaign, thank you. Let’s build an Oregon where our kids want to stay, work, and raise a family. Let’s get to work!

Oregonians deserve a watchdog for their tax dollars. I’m proud to have the endorsement of the Taxpayers Association of Oregon. I’ll keep fighting to rein in wasteful spending, oppose higher taxes, and keep more of your hard-earned money in your pocket. #Endorsement #ORPol #ProtectTaxpayers #GOTV

As an Air Force veteran, I know our commitment to those who served cannot end when they take off the uniform. That’s why I helped pass a task force focused on improving Oregon’s response to veterans in crisis. When a veteran reaches out for help, we need a system ready to answer. They showed up for our country. We owe it to them to show up, too. #ORPol #Veterans #BackToBasics #GOTV

Young Republicans of Oregon did a tremendous job bringing groups together across East Metro. Mazzy and I spent the day knocking doors, working toward a November win one conversation at a time. My daughter and campaign manager keeps me moving. She does a great job. #BackToBasics #HelfrichForSenate #Gresham #FinishStrong

Nearly $118 million for our communities. Funding for the Hood River–White Salmon Bridge, fire protection in Gresham, wildfire prevention at McCord Creek, Rowena recovery, and the Mount Hood Cultural Center. I fought to help secure these investments because it’s your money, and our communities deserve results. That’s Back to Basics. #BackToBasics #ORPol #ORLeg

Spent yesterday evening at the Canby City Council meeting saying hello and talking about my run for Senate District 26. I also got to celebrate my former Portland Police Bureau colleague, Jose Gonzalez, as Canby’s new chief of police. Good to see familiar faces and be there for this next chapter. Congratulations, Chief Gonzalez. A great day for Canby! #Canby #ORPol #BackToBasics

Oregonians are tired of seeing homelessness get worse while housing stays out of reach. That’s why I worked across the aisle to help advance HB 2001. When families and communities need help, we have a responsibility to find common ground and get things done. That’s the leadership I’ll keep bringing to Salem. Back to Basics. Focused on results. #BackToBasics #ORPol #Homelessness

Thank you to everyone who joined me aboard the Mount Hood Railroad for our second annual Journey Through History! It was a great evening in the Hood River Valley with people who care about Oregon’s future. I’m grateful for your support and ready to keep working to get Oregon back on track.

I’m proud to have earned the endorsement of Willamette Week for Oregon Senate District 26. The publication highlighted my ability to find “matters of bipartisan common cause” and recognized that I “played a key role negotiating a bipartisan package” to reform Measure 110. We won’t solve Oregon’s biggest challenges by digging deeper into partisan divides. I’ve worked across the aisle to deliver results, and I’ll continue doing exactly that in the State Senate.

What happened at Silver Rail Elementary today is every parent's worst nightmare. As a father and a retired police officer, my thoughts are with every student, teacher, staff member, and family affected by today's events in Bend. I know firsthand the weight our law enforcement officers and first responders carry when they answer a call like this. I'm grateful to the Bend Police and everyone who responded to protect these children, including the teachers and staff who acted to keep their students safe. No parent should have to wonder whether their child will make it home safely from school. Right now, our focus needs to be on supporting these children, their families, and everyone shaken by what happened today. Please join me in keeping the entire Silver Rail community in your prayers tonight.

I’m proud to have Rep. Matt Bunch and Sen. Christine Drazan standing with me in the fight to get Oregon Back to Basics. Families can’t afford more taxes, more waste, and more excuses from Salem. I’m running for Senate District 26 to make our communities safer, fight rising costs, and hold government accountable for every dollar it spends. Let’s get to work. #Endorsement #ORPol #BackToBasics

Leaving Oregon shouldn’t feel like the only way to get ahead. Our next generation deserves good jobs, homes they can afford, and a chance to build a future here. I’m fighting to get Oregon Back to Basics so they have a reason to stay. #backtobasics #orleg #orpol #oregon

Getting Oregon Back to Basics starts with your vote. The voter registration deadline is October 13. Don’t wait—visit OregonVotes.gov to register or check your registration today. #BackToBasics #GOTV

Oregonians are tired of paying more and getting excuses. When taxes go up and the same problems go unsolved, government loses credibility. Trust has to be earned—with accountability, follow-through, and results people can actually see. That’s what I mean by Back to Basics. #backtobasics #orpol #orleg #affordability
