Bobby Levy was elected to serve District 58 in 2020.
Rep. Levy helped form the Eastern Oregon Women’s Coalition, a non-partisan, non-political organization with the goal of educating elected officials, business leaders, and state agency directors about the vital role Eastern Oregon’s natural resource-based economy plays in the state. In 2019, the group organized the successful Eastern Oregon Summit.
Rep. Levy worked as a licensed insurance agent and accounting manager. She also worked as a substitute K-12 teacher as she earned her master’s and was then hired as an adjunct professor at Blue Mountain Community College where she taught courses on campus and online.
District 58 covers all of Union and Wallowa counties and a portion of Umatilla County.
