We believe the people of Josephine County should have the right to decide what to read and believe. That’s why we endorse the following library board candidates, trusted leaders who all stand against censorship and for the freedom to read:

Pat Fahey “I was taken aback when Josephine County closed the libraries for lack of funding. That’s why I became involved in resurrecting our libraries as first, as a free-standing nonprofit, and ultimately, as an independent library district, committed to serving ALL the citizens of Josephine County.”

Gina Marie Agosta “I’m a committed steward of the library that serves as a community hub of lifelong learning, with relevant services for every demographic. Vote to re-elect me so we can protect the freedom to read guaranteed by the U.S. Constitution.”

Tina Gotchall “Every month, 20,000 books are checked out of our Josephine Community Library, proof of an invaluable resource — a resource worth expanding and protecting. And the best thing…it’s available to us all.”
