Richard Schram for WW Sheriff

I am pleased to endorse Richard Schram for Walla Walla County Sheriff.

During my tenure as Walla Walla County Emergency Management Director, I worked closely with Richard while he served as Chief Deputy for the Walla Walla County Sheriff’s Office. Throughout that time, he consistently demonstrated professionalism, reliability, and a strong commitment to public service.

In emergency situations, where sound judgment and steady leadership are critical, Richard was someone I could always depend on. He approached challenges calmly, worked effectively with partner agencies, and remained focused on serving the community. His ability to coordinate efforts, solve problems, and support emergency operations earned my trust and respect.

Richard also brought the same integrity and dependability to daily operations. He followed through on commitments, treated people with respect, and built positive working relationships across organizations. He was a steady presence who could be counted on regardless of the situation.

Based on my experience working with him, I am confident Richard has the leadership skills, professionalism, and dedication necessary to serve the people of Walla Walla County as Sheriff. I am proud to support his candidacy and encourage voters to do the same.
