Two Republican candidates are hoping to win their party’s nomination to upset incumbent Democratic Rep. Val Hoyle in Oregon’s 4th Congressional District. Amy Ryan Courser is a consultant and former Keizer City Council member. On her campaign website she says she’s a mom, wife, friend and patriot, and describes her priorities as “America first.” Her primary opponent, Monique DeSpain, a 30-year Air Force veteran and attorney, declined OPB’s invitation for an interview or candidate debate. We talk with Ryan Courser about making her case to Oregon voters in the 4th District.
