Though District 12 rep- resents the Springfield area, Linoz believes her engage- ment with businesses and groups in Cottage Grove will inform policy decisions which take rural concerns into account. “All of that has given me a behind-the-scenes look at a rural community’s need for economic development, how they struggle to man- age their own resources and come up with policies and procedures that encourage business and help their cit- izens stay, work and live in the rural environment,” she said. In Springfield, Linoz has been active with LTD’s ac- cessible services advisory committee and fills the role of rural representative. She has also helped advise how transportation funds are used, some of which are being used for South Lane county projects such as the LTD Connector. “My relationships with the city, county, state and Eugene/Springfield through my role at LTD has just benefited everything that we’ve done here [in Cottage Grove],” she said. “It’s been an opportunity to bring projects down here.” The LTD Connector, cur- CARES from A1 related family businesses by her agency as it relates to the CARES package. “We write to urge the United States Small Business Worship Directory COTTAGE GROVE: 6th & Gibbs Church of Christ 195 N. 6th St. • 541-942-3822 10:00am Christian Education: Pre-K through 5th Tim Baker, Senior Minister www.6thandgibbs.com First Presbyterian Church 3rd and Adams St 541-942-4479 Rev.: Karen Hill Worship: 10:00am Sunday School: 10:00am fpcgrove.com Calvary Baptist Church 77873 S 6th St • 541-942-4290 Pastor: Riley Hendricks Sunday School: 9:45am Worship: 11:00am The Journey: Sunday 5:00pm Praying Thru Life: Wednesday 6:00pm Hope Fellowship United Pentecostal Church 100 S.

Linoz sees the project as a good example of cross-pollination. “The fact that there’s trust already in place and we al- ready know how to work through issues with the service that we are running separate from LTD … there’s already been that open door and that relationship and it helped them to trust me,” she said. “That’s where I see I benefit both worlds. I can be that representative that, even if I’m not working or living in Cottage Grove, I am aware and will keep my con- nections with Cottage Grove so I can advocate from a ru- ral perspective.” Though she has enjoyed her engagement with civic groups, making those con- nections and finding com- munity solutions, the de- cision to run for office has surprised even Linoz. About a year ago, she was encouraged to run by an acquaintance with election campaign experience. “It was such a startling suggestion that I discounted it off the bat,” she said. “I just wasn’t prepared to even see that as a possibility.” After more conversation a bit of friendly urging, though, she came to realize that her experience in Cot- tage Grove could qualify her for the role. Setting aside her initial fears, Linoz said she is now ready to deal with the tumult that comes with po- litical life and sees her lack of political background as an actual benefit. “So now it’s just believabil- ity,” she said. “Can people believe that how you operat- ed in your past experiences and level of responsibility — can they envision you be- ing responsible for statewide decisions?” On the issues, Linoz said part of her approach will be to acknowledge the di- vergence of needs between rural and urban communi- ties while focusing on local control. “Some things just don’t need to be at the state level,” she said, referencing certain state procedures as not find- ing applicability with her own nonprofit South Lane Wheels. “Seeing that often enough, I want to make a difference in that I don’t forget to think about the trickle down,” she said, adding that she wants to find “more reasonable strategies” that will do less damage to smaller entities. “We’ve got to stop ham- pering business and come up with a better balance be- tween regulations, but not so much that it penalizes a business from growing and operating,” she said. “I just don’t think due diligence is happening some of the time.” Linoz cited the state’s re- cent cap and trade bill quar- rel as a “rushed job” which didn’t take into account the consequence of more bu- reaucratic excess. Finding solutions to homelessness is also on Li- noz’s to-do list and she sees a focus on business as a strat- egy. “I really agree with getting people into housing as the best way to invest money and resources,” she said. “If we were making it possi- ble for businesses to thrive — for people to have jobs — then money could come into the whole community so that we have resources to take care of public housing or other housing options.” Though Linoz stated she has no problem with using state funds to address home- lessness, she said she prefers that communities have final say on how they use that money to deal with their particular challenges. Linoz also plans to advo- cate for more education op- tions such as charter schools and veteran and first re- sponder support, especially for those dealing with trau- ma. “I want to be a fresh voice that talks about these is- sues,” she said. “I’m tired of fear being a mantra … we’ve got such a social thread of decency that there’s no rea- son we should be walking around being afraid. I choose to do what’s hard. And if do- ing what’s hard is unpopular, I’ll sign up for that. I don’t have an ego about this. If this doesn’t happen, I can still do what I do best.” Administration (SBA) to make farmers and agricul- tural businesses eligible for the Emergency Economic Injury Grant program that was included in the Coro- navirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act.” the senators wrote. “The Small Business Administration made farmers and agricul- tural businesses ineligible for this program and we would like to know the rea- soning behind this decision and any statutory limitations on aiding farmers. Farm- ers need our help to make it through this pandemic while continuing to feed American families and fuel our economy, both of which are essential to our short and long-term survival.” Additionally, Wyden, the son of a journalist, has joined 18 other senators in asking Senate leadership to include protections for small town newspapers and local journalists in any fu- ture COVID-19 related leg- islation. “The current public health crisis has made the already vital role of local news even more critical.
