swing through Heppner
Keeping watch over the
stale bureaucracy, protecting
'the rights of Oregonians. is the
main issue in Dave Frohn
niaver's campaign for state
attorney general.
Visiting Heppner as part of
a recent Eastern Oregon
campaign swing, Frohnmayer
said Oregonians need a
"friendly face" in government
to protect their rights and
interests.
"Administrative agencies
make more rules that govern
citizens than the legislature,"
said Frohnmayer. "I have a
real concern with bureaucrat
ic dominance, and I think it's
important Oregonians have a
friendly face in their govern
ment." Frohnmayer, 39. will face
Portland attorney and six
year Multnomah County Dist
rict Attorney Harl Haas for
the attorney general's position
in the November 4 election.
Three-term state represent
ative. Frohmayer says one of
the main duties of the attorney
general's office is to curb
bureaucratic abuses by gov
ernment agencies. "There are
times when the state is wrong,
and you just have to say it." he
emphasizes. "The attorney
general just has to make sure
the agencies are within the
law."
Frohnmayer, who lives in
Eugene with his wife, Lynn,
and their three children, says
the attorney general's office
needs someone with a high
degree of integrity,. "The
office has to be very profess
ional and has to have credibil
ity. It has to be above
politics." He says he has
always stood by his convict
ions, a trait which, he says,
often made it difficult to
operale in the politics of the
legislature.
The attorney general's off
ice should be above reproach,
he adds. "And above all. you
have to be right. People rely
on you for their lives and their
fortunes."
If this is what he can offer
the citizen of Oregon on a
more visible level. Frohn
mayer says he will also, work
to streamline the office and
make it more efficient.
He says one of the problems
the office has seen recently is
its inability to keep a quality
staff. "Government has to be
taut and efficient." he states.
"And lo do this you have to
keep up the staff. I have a
good reputation for judging
legal talent."
He says there has been some
criticism of the attorney
general on the timeliness of

The project was denied,
according to the agency , on

years and that the costs of the
project would place an un
necessary additional financial
burden on the hospital and the

The project, if approved,
would have resulted in the

additional beds and other
