Friend,
My do-nothing opponent has launched a desperate, false and misleading attack ad – challenging my independence and 10 year record of accomplishments in education. For someone who is nothing more than a silent spectator in supporting our local schools -- his attacks are particularly ironic and ring hollow.

I need your help to fight back against these lies. Please make a donation today to help defend myself against his misleading attacks. Your contribution will help me keep this ad on the air – I love it and think you will too.
For the past ten years – eight years on the school board and two years as your State Representative, I’ve been a tireless advocate for our kids, our schools and for better education for all children in Oregon. The truth:
Funding: I delivered the biggest K-12 education budget in state history for Bend La-Pine schools. And when our district was facing budget cuts due to the economic crisis, I voted to direct $400 million from the state rainy day fund to protect school budgets across the state -- and here in Bend.
Graduation: While graduation rates were stagnant across the state, I joined with local educators and fellow members to help raise local high school graduation rates by 10%.
Overcrowding: I helped secure voter-approval to build 4 new schools to help relieve classroom overcrowding. When our kids return to classroom learning, they will experience the difference.
Safety: Prioritizing student safety and security, I helped deliver new safety entrances for 22 schools across our district.
Sustainability: To protect our environment, I worked to replace dirty diesel engine school buses with cleaner burning fuels.
Sincerely,
Cheri
