Ben Edtl is an average Oregonian who was a thriving small business owner prior to the Pandemic. Once the lockdowns occurred in 2020, it effected his businesses greatly, so he decided to step up as a Freedom Fighter and fight for those that were suffering during this time of great fear, misinformation, and chaos. 
Through this he co-founded a non-partisan group called FreeOregon, which has been influential in standing for Medical Freedom, Small Businesses, and for workers who lost their jobs due to Employer and State Vaccine Mandates.
He is now being called to take a bigger step into service work to the people by running for Oregon State Senator for District 19. 
Ben is courageous and is willing to take a stand for what is right and for others.  He is transparent and speaks his mind with clarity and conviction. 
Due to these attributes many of his cynics claim he is a right-wing racist, closed-minded, and many other incorrect judgements. I invited him on the show to share about the great work he is doing and to dispel the myths about him that others place upon him. 
I am grateful he came on the show, so people could listen to his ideas, his goals, and how he would like to continue to contribute to make Oregon a better place.
