Oregon is too important for me to sit by while Tina Kotek and the Democrats in Salem destroy our middle class. Liberal policies are driving up the cost of living in Oregon with overregulation and constant attempts to raise taxes on the working class leading to hire costs at the grocery store and at the gas pump while the Second Amendment rights of law-abiding Oregonians are under attack.
I’m running for reelection to defend our country and protect our children’s future by standing up to the radical left in Salem.
As a veteran, I have always put America First. As your state representative I have worked to improve the lives of the hard-working families in southern Oregon.

ALEK’S STORY
Alek is a former Oregon National Guardsman and Afghanistan Veteran. Along with four others Alek stopped an armed ISIS terrorist on a Paris-bound train travelling from Amsterdam to Paris in August 2015.
His heroism earned him several awards and medals around the world including, the United States’ Soldier’s Medal. In addition, he received the Chevalier of the Legion of Honour and the medal of the City of Arras, France.
After serving with the National Guardsman for 5 years, Alek left military service in November 2017. Upon completing his service, Alek voiced his inspiring experience by authoring 15:17 to Paris: The True Story of A Terrorist, A Train, and Three American Heroes describing the events that led up to the attack on the train ride to Paris from Amsterdam.
Alek later had the privilege of working with legendary director Clint Eastwood on the film 15:17 to Paris that portrayed the harrowing attack in which Alek starred as himself. He went on to tour the country on public speaking engagements encouraging others to take control of their lives and the importance of duty to the community.
Alek’s experience stretches beyond the military. With a strong belief in service to his community, Alek stays active by advocating for responsible forest management in Southern Oregon.
Alek has represented Oregon’s 4th House District since 2025 and currently serves as the Deputy Republican Caucus Leader as well the Vice-Chair of the House Committee for Economic Development, Small Business, and Trade.
He lives in southern Douglas County with his wife Jessi and spends his time working his ranch.
