Commonsense Leadership For Clackamas, Damascus and East Portland

I’m Andrew Morrison, and I’m running to represent House District 48, which includes Damascus, Clackamas, Happy Valley, and part of Portland. I grew up here in Oregon, and like so many of my neighbors, I’m proud to call this community home. My background is in business, technology, and sales, where I’ve spent my career helping people and organizations succeed. I’m also a dad, husband, coach, and have served as both a current and past board member for several community organizations.

I’ve seen firsthand both the challenges families face and the opportunities we have to make life better. I’m not running to score political points—I’m running to serve. I want to bring common-sense solutions, accountability, and a spirit of collaboration to Salem.

About Me

Key Issues I’m Focused On

  • PUBLIC SAFETY

    Keeping our communities safe is one of the most fundamental responsibilities of our government. I will always support law enforcement and first responders to make sure they have the tools, training, and resources they need so they can protect our families and local businesses without unnecessary risk. Families, businesses and working people deserve to feel secure in their neighborhoods, at their jobs and businesses, and when they come home at night.


  • AFFORDABILITY

    Oregon’s rising cost of living is squeezing working families, like mine and yours, and small business from every direction. We must fight to ease the burden of everyday expenses like fuel, housing, groceries, childcare, and healthcare so more Oregonians can keep more of what they earn. True affordability means creating an environment where working people can thrive without being priced out of the places they call home.


  • EDUCATION

    Every child deserves a strong education that prepares them for the real world, whether they choose college, career, or technical training. That means supporting teachers, protecting classroom resources, and prioritizing academic achievement over bureaucracy. Our schools should equip young people with the skills they need to succeed, and we must value the contributions of every educator and school employee who makes learning possible.


  • INFRASTRUCTURE

    We need reliable roads, bridges, and utilities that keep pace with growth and support Oregon’s workers, commuters, and businesses. Infrastructure investments should be smart, efficient, and accountable, so we spend taxpayer dollars wisely and create safer, more dependable transportation for employees and families across the district. A strong infrastructure foundation means better access to jobs, commerce, and opportunity for everyone.


  • ACCOUNTABILITY IN GOVERNMENT

    Taxpayers deserve transparency and responsibility from their government, especially when it comes to how their hard-earned dollars are spent. That means rigorous oversight, sensible budgeting, and a refusal to pass unnecessary tax burdens onto working people, businesses and families already struggling to make ends meet. True accountability ensures that public funds are used to support essential services, not waste or bureaucratic growth.
