It’s hard to believe by the time older students return to Stanfield School District and other districts across Oregon, 11 months will have passed since most students stepped inside a classroom. We must get our students back to in-person learning. https://t.co/NG63PIKdRp — PolitiTweet.org

Classrooms won't look the same, but we can get students back in schools this spring if we do this right in Oregon. Vaccination, rapid testing, and strict health and safety guidance will help to protect students, staff, and their families from COVID-19. https://t.co/T4AGOJxWkQ — PolitiTweet.org

Good news — we are ahead of schedule. By early April, we expect to have provided first dose vaccines for three-quarters of all eligible Oregonians, including seniors. That means we'll be ready to move on to Phase 1B one month earlier than initially planned. — PolitiTweet.org

I am deploying 30 additional National Guard members to help answer Oregonians questions when they call into 211. @OregonGuard have already helped administer more than 44,000 vaccines to Oregonians. That is 58% of the total vaccines at the sites they support. Thank you. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Kate Brown @OregonGovBrown

Next week we'll open up statewide vaccinations for seniors living independently, beginning with those 80+. I want to remind folks that we are still managing a scarce resource, and there will be hiccups in this process, but we are going to get through them. — PolitiTweet.org

As we mark nearly a year since Oregon’s first COVID-19 case, today we hit a grim milestone of crossing past 2,000 COVID-19 related deaths. Each life lost is one too many. I know each number is someone’s parent, child, best friend or colleague. And my thoughts are with them. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Kate Brown @OregonGovBrown

Every student deserves the one-on-one, personalized education and support our schools and educators provide. Salem-Keizer is our 2nd largest district, serving 42,000 students––over half students of color. In March, about 17,000 elementary students can return to the classroom. — PolitiTweet.org

For years, pharmaceutical companies and their consultants profited from the pain of Oregonians suffering from opioid addiction. Thanks to the work of @ORDOJ, $7.8 million from this settlement will go towards substance use treatment and recovery. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Kate Brown @OregonGovBrown

No state's rollout has been perfect, but I'm proud we're working together and making steady progress on the vaccine front — thanks to Oregonians who are stepping up when it's their turn, we are the 11th state in the country for getting shots in arms. https://t.co/SGcjteFWK1 — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Kate Brown @OregonGovBrown

Oregonians 80 and older can get vaccinated starting Monday, Feb 8. Vaccination for those 75+, 70+, and 65+ will happen in waves in the coming weeks, to make sure there are enough shots for those eligible. Please don’t call for an appointment until you are eligible.

With the challenges of this past year, many working families face difficulties getting food on the table. To help Oregonians impacted by the pandemic, @ORHumanServices will continue to offer increased food benefits this month. Go to https://t.co/EHZaOFq2It for more information. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Kate Brown @OregonGovBrown

We all look forward to when we can reconnect in person with our friends and family. However, until we’re vaccinated, we must continue to wear masks, socially distance, and meet outdoors when possible if socializing with those we don’t live with. https://t.co/IwX874tH2o — PolitiTweet.org

The COVID-19 pandemic has exposed and exacerbated disparities in our behavioral health systems. We must act. This report's data and recommendations can help to improve our behavioral health systems to provide equitable care to our Latino/a/x communities. https://t.co/Iskgnl8mdY — PolitiTweet.org

I look forward to seeing how Oregon's high school students are artistically inspired by our state in their submissions for @WestGov's Celebrate the West art contest. Students can submit from now until April 30th. Good luck to all our young artists! https://t.co/mHBMCjOv4k — PolitiTweet.org

#BlackHistoryMonth — a time for us all to honor the history of Oregon's Black community, and celebrate their significant contributions to our state. It's also a time to double down on our pursuit of building a more equitable Oregon where all can realize their full potential. — PolitiTweet.org

Thank you, Terri, for going above and beyond to help a fellow Oregonian in need. (and thank you for 30 years with the U.S. Postal Service!) https://t.co/kCWyBeh3b0 via @KGWNews — PolitiTweet.org

It's refreshing to see climate leadership in the White House again — climate change threatens our communities, our economy, and our way of life. We owe it to future generations to take this crisis seriously. — PolitiTweet.org

This is in addition to daily data updates that include reported deaths by age bracket, allowing for both timely updates on a daily basis, and full and accurate information on a weekly basis. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Kate Brown @OregonGovBrown

In a pandemic, Oregonians must have access to timely info to keep themselves & their families safe. I have directed @OHAOregon to disclose all data on COVID-19 deaths weekly, including the date the individual tested positive, their age, location & underlying health conditions. — PolitiTweet.org

This is an important step forward for reproductive rights — and one that will help increase access to reproductive health care across the world. https://t.co/GrrySVMXhg — PolitiTweet.org

The pandemic has amplified what we’ve always known in Oregon: access to health care coverage saves lives. Thanks to President Biden’s order, starting Feb 15th, Oregonians can go to https://t.co/c5KgwmIN3T and shop for coverage. https://t.co/UFVN1pFwvZ — PolitiTweet.org

Oregon's health care workers always go the extra mile. Even the snow did not stop these Josephine County health workers from making sure no vaccines were wasted, vaccinating drivers waiting for the road to be cleared in an impromptu clinic on Highway 199. https://t.co/FUXdmAK62Q — PolitiTweet.org

Other counties have done a fantastic job and have finished their first round of vaccines for Phase 1a populations, and we will push to give first doses to all Phase 1a individuals statewide before February 8. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Kate Brown @OregonGovBrown

That's currently about 60% of the ~53,000 first doses to be sent around the state next week, reflecting the large number of health care workers and individuals from vulnerable populations in the region. — PolitiTweet.org
