Endorsements

"I worked with Dave Henslee at the Klamath Falls Police Department when he was Chief of Police. During the eight years I have known Dave, he has been a man of faith, he has great integrity and is willing to work with others. Dave has an abundance of tenacity and when he goes after something he does not stop until it is accomplished. 

He has my full endorsement for State Senate"

— Dave Amaya
Pastor, Police Chaplain, & Small Business Owner

"When I met Dave I knew immediately he was here to do the hard work for the residents of his community. I've worked alongside him for more than a year focusing on public safety - specifically recriminalizing the use and possession of hard drugs. 

Dave stepped up to lead county commissioner across the state in this work, and we successfully navigated the Oregon Legislature to pass the HB 4002.

His years of public service combined with his passion to help others more than qualifies him to be the next Senator for SD 28. 

I highly recommend him and look forward to continuing our work together."

— Danielle Bethell
President, Association of Oregon Counties & Marion County Commissioner

"I am more than happy to endorse you for your run for the Oregon State Senate. Your experience in law enforcement and most recently as a county commissioner is an incredible foundation for serving in the Oregon State Senate. Your family background in ranching is a skill set that is really needed in the Senate as retirement is removing most agriculture experience in the republican caucus." — Lynn Findley
Oregon Senator

Dave Henslee is the clear choice as the new State Senator representing District 28 in Salem. He has a track record of public service that spans three decades, including serving as Chief of Police in Klamath Falls and an elected Klamath County Commissioner. He understands agriculture and our local water challenges, and his appointment to the Agriculture and Rural Affairs steering committee for the National Association of Counties provides him with an even broader perspective of these critical issues. I'm voting for Dave Henslee as District 28 State Senator. — Dan Keppen

I am endorsing Dave Henslee for Senate District 28. His experience in law enforcement and proven track record as a leader will ensure public safety is a priority in Salem something that is crucial for a better Oregon. — Nathan Sickler
Jackson County Sheriff

Dave and I have known each other for over a decade, dating back to our time together in the Oregon Association of Chiefs of Police (OACP). I have always known Dave to be an honorable man who stands up for what is right. As a member of OACP he was active in many committees and lent his knowledge and skills to improving law enforcement leadership in our state. From his time as chief of police in Klamath Falls to his time as county commissioner, he has always been approachable and quick to assist whenever asked. I believe that Dave will make an engaged and influential State Senator who will be a positive benefit to Southern Oregon.
