Signature

Charlie Conrad is an American Independent politician who represented the 12th district of the Oregon House of Representatives from 2023 to 2025. He won the seat in the 2022 election against Michelle Emmons. Formerly a member of the Republican Party, he changed his party registration in June 2024.

Career

Conrad served on the Springfield Police Department as a police officer and detective. He then became a research coordinator for the League of Oregon Cities. He then worked at Parks and Lane Events Center in Lane County.

Oregon House of Representatives

Conrad serves on three committees: Behavioral Health and Health Care, Emergency Management General Government and Veterans, and Judiciary.

In 2023, Conrad was the only Republican in the Oregon Legislature to vote for a bill expanding access to abortion and gender affirming care. In 2024, he faced a primary challenge from businessman Darin Harbick. He did not receive support from the state House Republican caucus or the Oregon Republican Party's campaign arm in the 2024 primary.

In June 2024, after losing renomination in the Republican primary election to Harbick, Conrad changed his party registration to the Independent Party of Oregon.

Personal life

Born in Corvallis, Oregon, Conrad resides in Dexter, Oregon.
