My family is lucky that we were in a position for me to transition to being a Stay at Home Dad during 2020. Many families we know struggled to balance employment with child care and education during the pandemic. During this time I was able to connect with my kids in ways that are all but impossible when you only spend a few hours together in the evening. In the spirit of LinkedIn qualifications, and for a bit of fun, some tasks I performed were: - Ensured my children were in class on time, on task and completing course work on a daily basis. - Met with teachers and kids to prepare education plans. Followed up to ensure goals are being met. - Maintained a clean and orderly home for my family. - Prepared shopping lists and effectively executed actions from that list. - Successfully navigated verbose online recipes to provide daily healthy, cost-effective home-cooked meals.

Oregon has been through a lot in the last few years. COVID, Record Forest Fires, Record Heat, Stagnant Wages, Rising Housing Prices. All of these things and more have worked to push us apart, to isolate us, physically and politically.Now, as we look to the east and the looming threat of an escalating conflict in Europe, we are reminded that there is more that unites us than divides us. We all love our state and our country. We all love our families and our communities. We all love our children and we all strive to provide for them a better, brighter future. There's only one way that we can make progress toward a more perfect state and a more perfect union, and that's by working together.I will be a voice in Salem that seeks to bridge the urban and rural divide, to listen to those who feel unheard. I will work to understand the views of all members of our community and will bring that understanding into the rooms where decisions are made.My Priorities• 1 in 7 Oregon children suffer from food insecurity. We can feed them.• There are over 1,400 homeless veterans in Oregon on any given night. We can house them.• As climate change looms, renewable energy organizations are struggling to enter the market. We can remove those obstacles.• Renters are paying more for their housing while their wages are stagnating. We can help them.• The cost of living keeps going up, so should the minimum wage. We can help small businesses as we make the transition.If you would like to learn more about me or my legislative priorities, please visit my website atwww.BenWattsforOregon.com
