SENATOR CEDRIC HAYDEN

STATE SENATOR SD 6 - LINN, LANE & MARION CO.

“Angelita has earned my endorsement for the Oregon House of Representatives because she’s proven herself to be a true grassroots advocate for the people of her community. Not only has she been a strong voice serving as a City Councilor in Sweet Home, she’s served in our Senate office as my legislative aid engaging in complicated topics like health care, transportation taxes, and civil rights for families and people with disabilities. Her constituent service work is excellent. She has earned her place to serve as a State Representative through her actions and her heart for the people of this state.”

TONY AIELLO JR.

M114 ATTORNEY

“Too many people claim to be ‘Pro-Second Amendment’ when its politically convenient. I am actively engaged in defending Oregonians against unconstitutional firearm restrictions, and that’s why I take this endorsement seriously. Angelita Sanchez understands the Constitution, respects the limits of government power, and has the backbone to defend individual rights when it matters. She doesn’t posture, she does the work. She has my full endorsement.”

DR. ANGELA PLOWHEAD

FMR. OREGON REPUBLICAN PARTY VICE CHAIR | PSYCHOLOGIST

“As I have gotten to know Angelita, I have been able to witness up close her passion for Oregon and for making our state functional and prosperous. This passion drives her to continually take action. When she sees something that is wrong, she jumps in to do something about it. She does not sit idly by. She does not let obstacles stop her, but finds innovative solutions to every problem she encounters. She just plain gets stuff done. As a business owner, she knows the struggles that come with ensuring that not only you, but your employees are able to make a living. She will take these same qualities into the legislature with her to make Oregon better than it has ever been before.”

FMR. SODAVILLE CITY MANAGER | FMR. OREGON REPUBLICAN PARTY TREASURER

“As a former City Administrator/Recorder of Sodaville, I am proud to endorse Angelita Sanchez for State Representative. House District 11 faces painful challenges from all fronts, particularly water, natural resources, and government waste in Salem. We need someone who knows the ropes in Salem, and the woman who has served as a City Councilor, legislative staffer, and hard-working trucker is just the person for the job. Nobody will bring a stronger work ethic or more powerful fighting spirit to Salem than Angelita.

MARIE BOWERS

GRASSSEED FARMER | ACTIVIST | MOM

“I’ve worked side by side with Angelita. I’ve seen how she puts others above herself to accomplish our goals. She’s the kind of leader rural Oregon needs – Tough, Honest, and Rooted in her community. Angelita takes the time to truly listen and thoughtfully consider every concern her constituents bring forward. She’s more action than talk – and she gets things done for the people she represents.”

BEN ROCHE

FMR. LINN CO. REPUBLICAN CHAIR | DISTRICT SALES MANAGER
Angelita is, quite simply, the hardest working public advocate I’ve seen in action. She knocks on doors, makes calls, shows up to testify, organizes communities, and builds coalitions that get results. Whether she’s fighting against government overreach, standing up for election integrity, or working to defeat radical ballot measures like Ranked Choice Voting, Angelita does the work most politicians avoid and she does it with grit, grace, and a deep love for Oregon.
She knows the stakes. She’s lived the consequences of bureaucratic overreach in her own business and personal life. That’s why she’ll fight like hell for House District 11 families, because she is one of them. She has my full endorsement! Let’s send our fighter to Salem.”

JOE STINNETT

LOG HAULER | TIMBER UNTY FOUNDING MEMBER
“I stood with Angelita on the Capitol steps and inside the Capitol on more than one occasion to give testimony, voicing our opinions of bad bills trying to be pushed through. I’m a log hauler and have been with #Timberunity since the founding days, as one of many originals. I was a convoy captain, TU facebook page admin and a board member of ONRI. Ms. Sanchez has my endorsement and full support. She will fight hard for you all. Thank you. Sincerely, Josef L Stinnett”

I urge you to vote for Angelita Sanchez. She is a proven and passionate grassroots leader. She has proven that with her work with #TimberUnity, her service as a city councilor and her consistent advocacy for common sense policies. Community outreach, coalition building and clear communication come naturally to her. When tough legislation arises, Angelita will always include her constituents and ensure their voices are part of the solution!”

ROBERT EGNER

LINN COUNTY REPUBLICAN PARTY DELEGATE
“As a lifetime resident of Linn County, I fully support Angelita Sanchez — not just because she’s a friend, but because she has a proven record of action, integrity, and leadership as a council member in our district. She was our Linn County Republican Vice Chair and Secretary, our Oregon Republican Party Delegate to the RNC and D.C. and one of eight Oregon Electors for the Republican electoral college. She defends our inalienable rights, stands up for rural communities and natural resources, and pushes for lower taxes and common-sense government. 
 
In 2019, Angelita stood shoulder to shoulder with loggers, truckers, and rural blue collar workers to defeat the disastrous Cap and Trade legislation. She helped lead the #TimberUnity movement, driving public attention to the issue, organizing a historic rally at the Capitol with thousands in attendance, and stopping a policy that would’ve devastated our natural resource economy and communities. 
 
In 2023, Angelita also attended many meetings in the Valley, spearheading the pushback against the drawdown of Green Peter. She asked the hard questions of the Army Corp of Engineers when the federal mandate came from the Portland judge and helped force action to protect us. She pushed for an Emergency Declaration, with the help of our City Manager and led the way to get other communities to join forces. Ultimately it halted the drawdown and changed the way it was done. 
 
Angelita is a champion for election integrity. In 2024, she spearheaded the defeat of Measure 117, statewide Ranked Choice Voting. That would have fundamentally changed Oregon elections forever, for the worse. She came up with the plan and strategically got over 50 voter pamphlet statements printed in opposition to Measure 117. Her actions defeated an $11 million dollar onslaught by the majority party to save our voting process. There is still more work to do, but if anyone will get it done, it will be her!
 
Angelita is our fighter and our voice. We would be lucky to have her represent use in House District 11. She was born for this. She is the hardest-working, most knowledgeable candidate we could ask for. She will be our strongest advocate in the Capitol.”
