When we all work together, we can achieve real change in police reform. Today I signed HB 4301 into law, a ban on police use of chokeholds in most situations. I'd like to thank the Legislature's People of Color Caucus for leading the way on this important bill. #BlackLivesMatter https://t.co/HooTl3Rc3f — PolitiTweet.org

We still need Congress to act with long-term economic relief to replace the previous $600 a week benefit, but @ORemployment will now provide an additional $300 per week to Oregonians who are out of work due to COVID-19 and receiving unemployment benefits. https://t.co/hjFkuCXHvI — PolitiTweet.org

There's less than a month left in the #2020Census. Reminder: filling yours out takes 10 minutes and helps Oregonians for the next 10 years! https://t.co/vVS8DaErs2 — PolitiTweet.org

Today I extended the COVID-19 Emergency Declaration for 60 days. We're in a critical moment. We can slow the spread & get on the path to return more students to school – or Labor Day celebrations could unknowingly spark outbreaks that set us back months. https://t.co/iy99poWXbB — PolitiTweet.org

September is Childhood Cancer Awareness Month. We know that more than 5,000 children fighting cancer in Oregon are vulnerable to getting sick with COVID-19. Each of us wearing a face covering can be a life-saving act. — PolitiTweet.org

Today I extended the foreclosure moratorium through Dec. 31 to protect Oregon homeowners & business owners. Every Oregonian deserves a safe, affordable home, especially during a pandemic. I'm also working with partners on options around the eviction ban for renters. — PolitiTweet.org

Read my plan to protect free speech and end violence in Portland. I will continue to work with local and community leaders to bring all voices to the table to end the nightly confrontations and commit to bring about real change and racial justice. https://t.co/e3AkTjaI4V — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Kate Brown @OregonGovBrown

President Trump has encouraged division and stoked violence. It happened in Charlottesville. It happened in Kenosha. And now, unfortunately, it is happening in Portland, Oregon. Read my full statement: https://t.co/9w0Wx3vANZ — PolitiTweet.org

Cliff Robinson, AKA Uncle Cliffy, was such a legend in #RipCity, and will be missed. Sending my condolences to Cliff's friends, family, and @trailblazers fans everywhere. — PolitiTweet.org

Listen to Steve, a Confederated Tribes of Grand Ronde (@CTGRgov) leader, explain why this pandemic has been disproportionately affecting American Indian/Alaska Native Oregonians – and why he's asking you to wear a mask. https://t.co/denDze1RG5 — PolitiTweet.org

This week a pilot died in a tragic helicopter accident in Mt. Hood National Forest while fighting the White River Fire. I extend my deepest sympathy to his family, friends, and coworkers. Please honor his legacy & protect other firefighters' safety by following fire restrictions. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Kate Brown @OregonGovBrown

I'm happy to announce that the efforts to slow the spread of COVID-19 in Multnomah County and Hood River County have been effective enough for these counties to be removed from the Watchlist, and that there are no new counties being added at this time. https://t.co/BsfKd5GTyC — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Kate Brown @OregonGovBrown

I invoked the emergency conflagration declaration for the White River Fire in Wasco County. I ask Oregonians to do their part to protect our firefighters by preventing wildfires during the COVID-19 pandemic. If you are headed outdoors this weekend please follow fire restrictions. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Kate Brown @OregonGovBrown

Oregon values our vibrant, diverse immigrant & refugee communities. I want to remind every Oregonian that responses to the #2020Census are confidential. By federal law, they can't be shared with immigration or law enforcement. Fill yours out today: https://t.co/2mFl3ZFQUX https://t.co/oQr9yKDfdR — PolitiTweet.org

A great way to get a tasty meal, give a boost to restaurant owners and workers, and stand with Black communities in Oregon is to take part in Black-Owned Restaurants Week. (One of my favorites: a Garden pie from @atlaspizzapdx) https://t.co/krAGsG5HI3 — PolitiTweet.org

As we face COVID-19, which attacks respiratory systems, it’s even more important to protect the lungs of Oregon’s young folks, whose e-cigarettes use has jumped 80%. These practical recommendations show us the necessary steps to take to keep them safe. https://t.co/xhJMXcqllK — PolitiTweet.org

This pandemic is disproportionately affecting people of color: Latinx Oregonians have contracted the coronavirus at 6 times the rate of white Oregonians. Thanks to Reyna for sharing why she wears a face covering–and why she's asking you to wear one to protect her community. https://t.co/j8V7uxtlAH — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Kate Brown @OregonGovBrown

We must work together to deescalate the potential for confrontation, by continuing to foster community conversations and utilizing trained law enforcement officers to keep the peace and protect free speech, not soldiers. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Kate Brown @OregonGovBrown

Let me be clear: It’s time for the violence and vandalism to end so Portland can focus on the important work to be done to achieve real change for racial justice. Those who have committed acts of violence will be held accountable. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Kate Brown @OregonGovBrown

Oregon isn't interested in a role in your political theater, @realDonaldTrump. The @OregonGuard is focused on fighting wildfires, distributing PPE & helping with unemployment calls. I'd love to discuss what we actually need: financial resources, N-95 masks & testing supplies. — PolitiTweet.org

Thanks to 67% of Oregonians who have completed the #2020Census, making us 1 of only 7 states to match our 2010 Census participation. But we can do better than a decade ago! Spending 10 minutes will improve the life of Oregonians for the next 10 years. https://t.co/SjUHCbWbYe https://t.co/wXWuswhLFc — PolitiTweet.org

This pandemic is disproportionately affecting people of color: Black Oregonians have contracted the coronavirus at 4 times the rate of white Oregonians.
