New Video: Walden's Priorities

33 of Oregon's 36 counties rely on timber payments to fund schools, libraries, law enforcement and other community sustaining resources.

Two weeks ago U.S. Rep. Greg Walden (R-OR) told those 33 counties' sheriffs, librarians, teachers and other leaders that he has a higher priority - Big Oil profits.

"Greg Walden stood on the house floor and voted to close schools, shutter libraries and eliminate sheriff's patrols so that Big Oil could raise its profits," Democratic Party of Oregon Chair Meredith Wood Smith said. "When our rural communities needed him most, he voted to cut their funding. Watch the video to see how Oregon has reacted to Walden's `betrayal.' Then call him up and remind him he works for Oregon, not Big Oil."
