Executive Club Meeting Invitation!
7:00 pm • Wednesday June 1st • Airport Shilo Inn
The candidates!
Well, another primary is past, and the matchups for November are before us.
On the table is the economic future and social fabric of Oregon.
Wednesday, these candidates will appear to call for support and advice.
Suggested questions:
(Feel free to add a dozen or so of your own)
How much government is too much? State? Local? Federal?
How badly has liberal control of Oregon violated that limit?
Climate Change, man or nature?
Describe the level of scientific denial in Oregon's deep-blue leadership.
Economies, how free or restrained?
Identify the socialist propaganda which has taken hold of our state.
How rapidly can the Kitzhaber-Kulongowski-Brown damage be mended?
What's legitimate about bills that are too big to be read?
The liberal, public sector union stranglehold on state tax revenue:
how do we wrest it from their grasp?
The new "sales tax" proposal, worse than any sales tax proposition before it:
how do we educate voters and beat this destructive tax?
Since insurance is regulated by the states,
why is it that Washington gets to tell the states what policies are "legal"?
How do we restore 1st Amendment protections to those who are now being trampled on?
What ever happened to "shall not be infringed"?
Don't limits and licenses and screwy transfer laws do just that?
Do we really want to keep the inexperienced from finding a job,
just so we can have robots make our burgers and sweep our floors?
How expensive should electricity be here in Hydro Heaven,
and how many eagles should die for it?
What's wrong with a Wall, anyway? Or mandating E-Verify?
Or is locking the doors to our homes going to be illegal next?
Get the idea? Grill 'em. The liberals won't be as nice as we will be!
Join us to play your part, Wednesday night.

Submitting Followup Information
Executive Club passes on meeting followup information as a courtesy to our speakers and members. Any member or speaker may submit, by email, a simple update text presentation to be sent to the club mailing list, to give the membership to have more details, or just a recap of your platform presentation. To be considered for publication, please be sure to submit your update within 24 hours of the close of the meeting. Please don't include any pictures in your text, but links to web pages, or links to things stored elsewhere on the web -- .pdf files, Word documents, or even pictures -- are OK now. Formatting and inserted pictures will not be copied, just the text content, so please don't use 4 fonts and 6 colors to convey your thoughts: you will be disappointed. Look at a previous followup email, or the bottom of most of the invitation emails, to see how they are presented. The simpler and cleaner your text, the more likely it will appear exactly the same in the email we send out. Each update must also indicate the author's name and contact information -- either a phone number, email address, or website with contact information. We reserve the right to edit for brevity, or reject, any submission.

Friends of Freedom Foundation:
We are excited as warm summer days approach. It reminds us that June is coming, which means our first annual Freedom Foundation dinner event is approaching quickly.
Several friends have indicated they will be out of town, but wish they could support us.

Please
click here for all ticketing/sponsoring opportunities. Seating is selling pretty fast, and we are anticipating a full house for the evening.
Here are the basics:
June 24th, 2016 • 6 pm • Oregon Zoo Cascade Banquet Room
Keynote Speaker: Steve Forbes • Secondary Speaker: Rebecca Friedrichs
Now that Oregon's primary election is over, we can all take a deep breath, enjoy an evening together....and get down to work.
Some of our recent shenanigans:
In case you missed a recent post Freedom Foundation published, here is a little insight as to why Oregon legislators and leaders would want to sign a complaint lodged by our political opponents to the state's AG's office. A simple look at
each legislators candidate filings show they are beholden to those who contribute to their election.
We also faced the same complaint in Washington. Washington state
dismissed that case this week.
It's been a good week for freedom.

Article IV, Section 4, begins with: "The United States shall guarantee to every State in this Union a Republican Form of Government."
Isn't part of the that Republican Form of Government a procedure for amendment, which includes the right of states to amend the Constitution? Then for states to have governance modelled after the federal Constitution, shouldn't the political subdivisions of states -- counties -- also have that right of amendment to their state's Constitution?
Please read the proposal, here:
CONVENTION OF THE COUNTIES.
Please contact me by phone (503-332-5836) or email to
