Want to help?

My name is Schuyler Beckwith and I am running for Oregon City Council. I have lived in Oregon since 2019 but grew up right across the river in South Toledo. After graduating from Ohio State University with a degree in Political Science in 2009 and working in the Ohio State House, I moved back to Toledo to work in County Government. Over the years I have worked, lived, and attended school in other cities, but my heart and passion have always been rooted in Northwest Ohio. I have settled in Oregon, marrying David Wilson, a native Oregonian, and I am thrilled to call this place home. I have learned that folks in this community are hard-working and care deeply about ensuring this community continues to thrive. I am running for City Council because I want to be a fresh new voice for the future of Oregon. 

My experience in state and local government, and serving on several non-profit boards, makes me uniquely qualified to be your voice on Oregon City Council. I want to help shape and build the next Master Plan. I can bring a fresh perspective to the development of the new Town Center. I want to bring an indoor sports complex to Oregon! I want to help create a small business incubator in Oregon by partnering with UT Business Incubator to bring resources to Oregon small business owners. I want to work with partners in labor to fight for the best interest of both private and public sector workers. I want to foster growth and partnership between our amazing park system, the city, our residents, and local businesses. I want to help make sure industrial and manufacturing opportunities are considered through a lens that focuses on what is best for Oregon residents. I want to be a new leader for Oregon.
