Paul Romero’s Gubernatorial Contract With Oregon
Paul Romero For Oregon Governor Safety & Security For All Oregonians
(January 7, 2022 Revision)
As a Candidate for ALL Oregonians I submit the following Contract with Oregon ~ For Oregonians. I would like to thank Speaker Newt Gingrich for his inspiration and his commitment to America through his “Contract with America”, 1994.
Together we have witnessed the failures of both Democrats and Republicans in our state, all at the expense of the people, this must end! As a sovereign freedom and liberty loving people we all will find common ground, NOT middle ground. What is good for us all, should not leave any Oregonian out in the cold. Rights or freedoms taken from one in order to placate another is a violation of our founding principles.
I am committed, with absolute conviction, to accomplish the following as your Governor. This is a live document so please understand that life and circumstances are not stagnate and neither can our plan to right the wrongs. We will make adjustments based on progress and new knowledge.

The first act of the first Oregon legislature was a tax act. The Homestead Act was/is an act of Congress, created to give wealth to American Citizens.
I hereby pledge myself to this Contract With Oregon. This contract is meant to build and restore the lost bonds of trust between Oregonians and their elected representatives.
I offer a pragmatic Statesman approach to what I will do to repair, restore, and renew our state, its legislature and the faith of its Citizens. This commitment is my commitment to every Oregonian.
Oregon has been under the control of one party for far too long. In 30 years I have yet to witness a better or improved Oregon. What I have witnessed is not only the destruction of our Timber Industry, but the oppression and tyranny of our Private Property Rights with taxation; excessive and growing costs of licenses, fees, and permits; the growing tumor of sales tax, much of which is hidden; and the growing control over our private lands. This includes such things as recycling fees (tax) on such items as paint. The elimination of plastic bags and a fee (tax) to use paper bags unless you bring your own bags. These are subtle, overreaching, unconstitutional methods to force people to comply with an agenda. This is not freedom, but outright tyranny.
2022 offers an opportunity to unite ALL Oregonians under real leadership that will include the State Legislature. As YOUR Governor I will set the bar and build a legacy to hold future representatives accountable.
We need to shrink our Government, rein in irresponsible spending, reduce regulation, engage real transparency, and provide an environment where our children and grandchildren can enjoy a quality of life that many of us experienced in the past. I want all Oregonians to be able to afford a home and not be burdened by excessive taxes and fees brought about by an administration that lacks fiduciary responsibility.
There is a way! Together you and I can create a State that reinforces strong American family values and builds on the best traditions of the past while protecting Federal and State Constitutional Rights. I pledge to be kind but fierce as I dedicate myself to these tasks. I will bring real accountability on all levels, as Oregonians have called for.
What makes us all great is that when things are at their worst, we are truly at our best and the best is yet to come! Thank you for taking the time to get to know me and please share this far and wide! Thank you Oregon, thank you for your trust and your vote. I won’t let you down.
I am Paul Joseph Romero, Jr., Oregonian & USN Veteran
