In the Marines, the Naval Academy, the criminal courts of Oregon, private sector business, the Oregon Legislature, and in three elections Wally Hicks has shown leadership and wisdom. He is the right man to unite the Oregon Republican Party within itself and with Republicans in the Oregon Legislature to win victories in 2016. In order to succeed, politically and financially, the Oregon Republican Party must avoid inter-nal dissension and create winning electoral programs. Wally Hicks is a leader of great integrity with a record of successful accomplishment.

in Vietnam. He served 3 years in the Oregon National Guard, and 3 years as President of the Buffalo Soldiers Association of America.

He has worked in government on the Metro Solid Waste Advisory Board, Governor’s State Business Task Force, White House Small Business Conference, Solid Waste Recycling Board, Multnomah County Charter Re-view Board, Urban Forestry Commission, and City Pub-lic Utility Review Board and was appointed by Governor Atia to the Oregon Small Business Committee.

Bruce and his close co-workers are greatly respected throughout the Multnomah County African-American community and in the Hispanic, Asian, and other Oregon minority communities with which they have worked extensively. They understand how to break down the artificial political barriers that have been erected by unprincipled politicians to divide Americans from one another.

“The Oregon Republican Party is extraordinarily fortunate to have the opportunity to be represented by these four outstanding Christian Americans and their families. Their accom-plishments as they work together (Wally offers himself on the condition that all four are elected) for Republican candidates and values during the next two years will be ‒ I am certain ‒ a great credit to the Republican Party of Oregon.

“My family and I are delighted that our state Republican Party can be in the hands of these four Oregonians of excellence.” Art Robinson Chairman, Oregon Republican Party
