ELECT DWAYNE YUNKER-- OREGON STATE REPRESENTATIVE OF HOUSE DISTRICT 3
ELECT DWAYNE YUNKER-- OREGON STATE REPRESENTATIVE OF HOUSE DISTRICT 3
I am grounded in the belief that an overreaching government stifles personal freedoms and hinders individual progress. I will continue to uphold the idea that individuals are best equipped to make decisions that affect their lives and well-being. My deep appreciation of history will continue to guide my constitutional approach to legislation.
My views on individual rights, particularly regarding the Second Amendment, emphasize the fundamental importance of personal freedoms and self-reliance. I regard the Second Amendment as a crucial safeguard against potential government overreach, reflecting the principle that a well-armed citizenry serves as a deterrent to tyranny. That the right to bear arms is integral not only to self-defense and the protection of one's property but also to the preservation of a balance of power between citizens and the state.
Children are our greatest asset. It is because of this that my family and I are committed to education. My wife is a 5th grade teacher, my son a school counselor, and his wife teaches 1st grade. Education must center around choice, accountability, and individual values. I will advocate for local control and parental involvement in public education, while also recognizing the benefits of private schools in promoting student success. I strongly believe in education freedom for Oregon - the money follows the child. Both public and private education must prioritize academic excellence while instilling a sense of civic duty in the next generation.
Life is an extraordinary and sacred gift bestowed by the Creator. I am grounded in the belief that all human beings are made in the image of God. Therefore, I believe in the inherent dignity and worth of every individual from conception to natural death. I will protect and cherish life as a paramount principle by protecting the unborn, the vulnerable, the elderly, and those marginalized in society. I will fight for the sanctity of life and advocate for pro-life policies for every Oregonian.
Dwayne, his wife Gina and their 4 children.
My commitment to serving my country began when I enlisted in the Navy during my junior year of high school. After the Navy, my unwavering desire to serve led me to the Marine Corps, where I served over 10 years of active duty. I left the Marines to become a full-time father after gaining custody of my eldest son. Undeterred, I joined the Army National Guard and continued my service, adding another 11 years of active duty. My military career took me around the world. I received numerous awards and medals, reflecting my dedication, commitment to duty, and sacrifice. I have brought those same values to the Oregon State Legislature.
My commitment to you is to continue true conservatism to the Oregon State Legislature. I will continue my focus on limited government and free market principles. Our state needs innovation, entrepreneurship, and fiscal discipline so that Oregonians will once again have the opportunity to thrive. The best way for Oregon to achieve this is by staying true to the time-honored values of traditional family, individual liberty, personal responsibility, and upholding the sanctity of life. I am asking for your vote, to continue my service to you in Oregon as Representative of House District 3.
