Our reading

The choices this office faces
Every candidate in this race is asked the same 8 questions. Myrna A Munoz is on record on 4, with 4 still open. A question without an answer is a research gap, not a position.
No answer we could findVote for a 2027 transportation package that raises the gas tax and vehicle fees again?
Nothing on this exact choice in the sources we reviewed.
Let the state keep part of a future kicker refund for wildfire or other one-time needs?
Nothing on this exact choice in the sources we reviewed.
Keep the 2024 approach of recriminalized possession plus county deflection programs, and fund them in 2027–29?
Nothing on this exact choice in the sources we reviewed.
Spend more state money on wildfire prevention and firefighting?
Nothing on this exact choice in the sources we reviewed.
Close the 2027–29 budget gap with new revenue, or with cuts alone?
Said: Would close tax loopholes and make large corporations pay their fair share to invest in schools, healthcare and affordable housing.
Make data centers pay their own way: separate power rates, an end to tax breaks, or a pause on new ones?
Said: Calls the AI data-center build-out reckless and says it is driving up electricity bills; she commits to transparency, community input and environmental safeguards and does not say whether she backs separate rates, ending tax breaks or a pause.
On the topic; the exact choice is unsaid.
Keep paying for state-funded shelter beds and the homelessness emergency after June 2027?
Said: Wants a strategic plan to house all Oregonians and state investment in affordable housing; she does not address shelter funding or the emergency order.
On the topic; the exact choice is unsaid.
Keep adding state limits on federal immigration enforcement, on top of Oregon's sanctuary law?
Said: Would fight for laws that strengthen due process, prevent racial profiling and keep local resources on community safety; her About page calls for abolishing ICE.
A question the evidence leaves open
What enforceable conditions would you require of a new data center, and how would you finance housing and healthcare?
