James Hieb

[5] Hieb was appointed to the Oregon House of Representatives in District 39 by the Clackamas and Marion County Commissions to replace Christine Drazan, who resigned to run for Governor.

Hieb has a history of various petty charges including trespassing, DUII, eluding a police officer, disorderly conduct, and various vehicle and traffic violations.

[4] In 2021 video emerged of Hieb using pepper spray, while filming a clash between the Rose City Democratic Socialists Of America, Rose City Antifa, American Flag wavers, Cops Northwest, militiamen, and the Far Right group, the Proud Boys, during a political demonstration in Portland, Oregon.

[8] On August 17, 2022, at the Clackamas County Fair and Rodeo Hieb was arrested while intoxicated and carrying a concealed loaded handgun.

[10][11] No charges were filed as the district attorney determined Hieb’s behavior did not rise to the level of creating a disturbance to qualify for disorderly conduct.
