(Salem, OR)  --  Emails released by the state show Cylvia Hayes played an influential role in the administration of her fiance, then-Governor John Kitzhaber.  KATU-TV reports a December 2013 email included instructions from Hayes that her detailed policy agenda be "kept confidential."  Hayes wrote that her mission was to "help make the transition to an economy that is environmentally restorative and provides opportunities for people to prosper no matter their birth status."  Kitzhaber, prior to his resignation, told reporters that Hayes was neither his adviser nor a public official.
