Fighting For
Southern Oregon

Grants Pass City Councilor Seth Benham is running for Oregon State Representative to bring results-driven leadership, fiscal responsibility, and common-sense conservative values to Salem.

For too long, Southern Oregon has been ignored by Salem. Our communities send millions in tax dollars to the state capital, but when small businesses need relief from regulations and taxes, when young families need affordable housing, when our communities are plagued by homelessness and drug use, where's the money? It's being wasted on Portland priorities.

I'm running for House District 3 because Southern Oregon deserves a representative who will fight for our values and deliver results.

I believe in protecting life. I believe in the Second Amendment. I believe in limited government and personal freedom. I believe families should make their own decisions, not have government make them for us.

Southern Oregon deserves better. We deserve a representative who will fight for our values, defend our rights, and bring results—not rhetoric.

I believe in accountability, fiscal responsibility, and putting Southern Oregon first. As a Grants Pass City Councilor, small business owner, and community leader, I've spent my career solving problems and delivering results. Now, I'm ready to take that same approach to Salem.

A Voice for
Southern Oregon

Meet Seth

Seth’s commitment to Southern Oregon is personal.

As a husband and a father of two daughters, he is motivated every day to leave our community better for the next generation. For him, this isn't just about policy, it's about ensuring a future where families can flourish, businesses can prosper, and our constitutional rights are secure for our children and grandchildren.

Let me be clear from the start: I am, and have always been, a conservative. I believe in the sanctity of life, the unshakeable right to bear arms, the protection of our children and families, and the absolute necessity of free speech. These are the bedrock principles of our party and our community, and any representative from our district must be an unwavering champion for them. On these fronts, our current Representative and I are in complete agreement.

But our duty as conservatives does not end there. Defending our values is only half the job. The other half, the part that gets ignored when our Representatives are consumed by the Salem culture wars, is delivering tangible results for the families and taxpayers who sent them there. While our Representative has been fighting battles, Southern Oregon has been losing the war for our fair share of resources. It is time for a conservative who can do both.

It’s time for a conservative who can defend our values and deliver results for Southern Oregon.

A Conservative Who Can Do Both

HB 3115 has turned our communities into homeless camps filled with open drug use. Salem Democrats tied cities' hands while addiction and crime spiraled out of control. I'll fight to repeal HB 3115, restore local control, support our police, and provide drug treatment programs combined with real consequences. Families deserve safe neighborhoods, not Salem's failed experiment in enabling addiction.

Defend Public Safety and Community Standards

Families are being priced out of Josephine County because government regulations make it too expensive and time-consuming to build homes. I'll fight to remove the unnecessary roadblocks that stops housing development, streamline permitting processes, and increase the supply of affordable housing so families can buy homes and build their futures here.

Decrease Regulations and Increase Affordable Housing

Democrats have made Oregon one of the worst states in America to do business. Their endless taxes and regulations are killing jobs and driving employers away. I'll fight to cut the red tape strangling businesses, and protect local employers from Salem's anti-business agenda. Families need jobs, not more government.

My Priorities
For House District 3

Southern Oregon deserves a representative who will fight for our values, defend our rights, and bring our tax dollars back home. I'm focused on three priorities that will strengthen our communities and protect what  matters most.

Seth Benham is ready to bring results-driven leadership, fiscal responsibility, and common-sense conservative values to Salem. But he can't do it alone. This campaign is about more than one person, it's about a movement to restore accountability, defend our rights, and put..
