Oregon's spending on higher education ranks 49th in the nation. That's wrong and
we can fix it.
As a Senator, I stood up for more money for
education. As Governor, I will increase funding to Oregon's community colleges
and public university system and ensure that Oregon's students receive a
world-class education at an affordable price. We need to keep our best and
brightest here in Oregon.
How will we pay for it? Learn more

my plan to make Oregon's tax system
more fair and college more affordable.

Start a 'Students for
Ben' chapter on your campus!
By starting a “Students for Ben” club on
your campus, you will be able to reach other students and affect change at a
grass-roots level. By organizing within your school, you can collect
signatures, reach other students, and plan or attend events
throughout the school year, summer and next fall.
