I moved to Shasta County in 2021, in 2022 I asked my housemate who a good source would be for political advice regarding elections.
She pointed me in Authur’s direction! He was so kind to speak to me, and help me cast my vote with candidates who were politically aligned with my values. I’ve been a registered Republican since I was 18 years old, and I’ve never missed a vote in my county or country. Voting is very important to me, don't take it lightly. And neither does Authur Gorman.
Since then, I have connected with Authur via social media and in person. I find him to be a standup citizen, and honest human being, and all around a genuinely good person.
His wife Katie is amazing. I love cheering them on as they push forward, advancing the kingdom of God in our region, standing up for our children, staying involved with the community, and representing the true heart of Shasta County.
Recently, I was able to work one on one with Arthur and Katie, and I was impressed with the quality of character, their generosity, and their good nature. Putting others before themselves, blessing the ones around them, and all the while making it looks so effortless.
I’m very proud and honored to endorse Authur Gorman. We need more men like him to stand up in our community. And it's comforting to know, that people like Authur who are true patriots, still exist and won't quit for America, for the America that was originally founded.

As we have gotten to know Authur over the last few years, we have learned a couple things about him:
1. His generosity. Authur is always willing to help a friend, work a fundraiser, or just spend time sharing his extensive knowledge of many things. But more importantly:
2. His primary concern is for the well being of the kids. He cares deeply for all of them and fights against the indoctrination we see in schools and media.
A vote for Authur is a vote for a return to traditional education without the influence of alternative lifestyles, ideologies, political views, and anything else that has no place in public education. We are proud to support Authur in his efforts to be elected to the school board.

Authur Gorman is someone who saw challenges in his community and chose to step up rather than sit on the sidelines. Inspired by a desire to make a difference for local families, students, and future generations, he has dedicated himself to serving with integrity, courage, and conviction. Authur is a strong advocate for parental rights, local control, and educational excellence, always putting the needs of the community first. I am proud to endorse Authur Gorman for Shasta County Board of Education, Area 2.

I am supporting Authur Gorman for the candidate of School Board based on his consistently standing for common sense education.
Maybe we can bring California children up to a higher ranking in our failed woke education system in California.

Since I began to engage civically, I've met a LOT of people that show up for attention or clout, and I've met people who want to make a difference. Authur hands down is here to make a difference. I've seen Authur in action, lobbying people, sticking his neck out, and humbly accepting input to get a parental rights resolution that was rejected by a board, called back up on the agenda and then passed with zero opposition. In less than 48 hours he turned a no into a yes with a smile on his face as he did it. I truly believe it was because of how much he cares about people, about kids, and the manner in which he carries himself. That dedication and drive are great resources for the Board of Education. So much so that he's caught the attention of Sacramento. Keep up the great work!

(“A person who genuinely cares for others is a blessing to the community.”)
As fellow nurses who have had the privilege of working alongside Authur Gorman, we have seen firsthand the dedication, compassion, and leadership he brings every day. Whether he’s caring for patients, supporting families during difficult times, or helping fellow staff members, Authur leads with both professionalism and heart.
His commitment to Faith, Family, and Freedom isn’t just a slogan—it’s reflected in how he treats people. He advocates for his patients, works tirelessly to improve outcomes, and always takes the time to mentor and encourage those around him. In a profession where teamwork matters, Authur is the kind of coworker you can count on when challenges arise.
We are grateful to work beside someone who serves his community with integrity, compassion, and a genuine desire to make a difference. The same values that make him an exceptional nurse are the values he brings to public service.
We proudly support Authur Gorman because we’ve seen his character in action—not just in meetings or campaigns, but at the bedside where service truly matters.
