About Michael

Meet Michael Orth

Family Man, Retired Business Man, Gentlemen Farmer. A Fighter for all Oregonians.

Michael Orth — candidate for Oregon House District 36

Michael Orth is a lifelong Oregonian, retired Sales and Marketing executive, small business owner and is now a gentlemen farmer working the land and continuing to raise a great family in House District 36. He knows firsthand the challenges facing Oregon families — rising costs, failing schools, and communities that feel left behind by Salem. As a tax paying citizen as well as businessman, Michael has seen the impact.

Michael and his wife have built their life in rural Oregon, raising their children with the values of hard work, personal responsibility, and community. Two of his sons serve in law enforcement — which is why Michael's commitment to backing the blue is deeply personal, not just political.

As a small business owner and now gentleman farmer, Michael has seen the impact of excessive taxes, burdensome regulations, and out-of-touch policies coming from Salem. He's running for Oregon House District 36 to bring common-sense leadership back to the Oregon.

Michael believes in lower taxes, school choice, reinstated graduation requirements, and full support for law enforcement. He will fight every day for the families, farms, and communities of HD 36.
