John Huddle to Challenge McLane

A familiar name in Central Oregon has declared his candidacy for Oregon House District 55, currently held by Mike McLane. La Pine resident John Huddle says he believes that too many legislators are swayed by big corporations and lobbyists. "We don't need the legislators in there that are going around the established laws to craft bills. They need to be out talking to the people. They need to be dealing with issues that are important to the local people. And not catering to big corporations that want to come in with their special interests."Huddle says he wants to restore communication and leadership of the people, by the people and for the people. Huddle previously ran against Gene Whisnant for District 53 back in 2012, but the new district boundary puts him in McLane's district now. District 55 is one of Oregon's largest, geographically, that includes all of Crook, Eastern and Southern Deschutes, North Lake and Klamath and northeast Jackson counties.
