A good (and very adorable) reminder from Oregonian illustrator @magrudy, who created a free downloadable version of this poster in more than two dozen languages. https://t.co/vQ5KKpN5W6 https://t.co/s0tHGpWh9m — PolitiTweet.org

With so many of our back-to-school rituals altered for this year, it's easy to forget your child's back-to-school wellness exam. But please make, or keep, your appointment: this preventative care is truly important to your child's health. https://t.co/978btRdL0B — PolitiTweet.org

Earlier this week, I met with firefighters at the Mosier Creek Fire and families who lost their homes. You can prevent more wildfires – 90% this year have been human-caused. Hot, dry weather continues, meaning higher risk. Please respect burn bans and practice fire safety. https://t.co/vcQSm5mfeN — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Kate Brown @OregonGovBrown

Thanks to 70% 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/SjUHCbEB6G https://t.co/POpnZUOD8E — PolitiTweet.org

Brave, united, and caring: that's the Oregon way. Thank you to 86 firefighters from Linn, Marion, Clatsop, Lane, and Klamath counties for joining @CAL_FIRE in battling California's 220,000 acre LNU Lightning Complex fire in the Napa Valley. We will keep you in our thoughts. https://t.co/5MJweLPXy7 — PolitiTweet.org

.@trimet riders wearing face coverings is music to my ears. It's critically important to wear one anytime you're on a bus or light rail to reduce the spread of COVID-19 in Oregon, and also to keep public transportation open and safe for all riders (including Unipipers). — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Kate Brown @OregonGovBrown

The good news: we're slowing the spread of COVID. The bad news: our infection rate is still too high for most in-person schools. With the course we're on, meeting our goals is just going to take too long. We must do better, faster. We must work together. And we must do it now. https://t.co/ZtCbaW6Mv4 — PolitiTweet.org

Tune in at 11am for my press conference to discuss Oregon's efforts to stop the spread of COVID-19: https://t.co/Axf42Y2VOp — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Kate Brown @OregonGovBrown

I'm happy to announce that the efforts to slow the spread of COVID-19 in Wasco and Marion counties have been effective enough for these counties to be removed from the Watchlist. Unfortunately, there is a rise in cases in Jackson County, which is being added to the Watchlist. — 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/PMxVn9exff — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Kate Brown @OregonGovBrown

I want to acknowledge the great efforts community members and local officials have made in Umatilla County to curb the spread of COVID-19 enough that the county can progress from Baseline, Stay Home status to Phase 1, effective Friday. Keep being safe and smart. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Kate Brown @OregonGovBrown

Much of the state is now in extreme fire danger with red flag warnings issued for hot, dry, windy conditions & lightning from dry thunderstorms. Oregonians should prepare for an intense wildfire season. Each of us must be cautious & respect fire restrictions to keep Oregon safe. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Kate Brown @OregonGovBrown

I have declared a state of emergency due to the imminent threat of wildfire across Oregon. This authorizes @ORDeptForestry,@OSFM & @OregonOEM to respond and ensures crews have the resources they need on the ground across the state. https://t.co/GkV46LKnbo — PolitiTweet.org

If you have questions about the updated guidance requiring face coverings in office spaces, tune in for this Q&A on the topic with @OHAOregon, today at 1:30. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Kate Brown @OregonGovBrown

We've made our existing #childcare subsidy program work by removing costly co-pays, increasing income eligibility, and ensuring providers are paid even if a child isn't in care every day. These policies support parents & providers and we'll need federal support to keep them up. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Kate Brown @OregonGovBrown

States can't do this alone. We need federal investments for #childcare subsidies that support families & childcare providers. These investments must increase salaries for ECE educators to support providers - immigrant women & women of color. Families can’t shoulder the high cost. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Kate Brown @OregonGovBrown

#earlychildhood education investments are racial justice investments. Disparities by race & zip code begin early & predict access to quality, culturally-responsive #ECE settings. ECE can help close opportunity gaps for young children & families & foster positive racial identity. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Kate Brown @OregonGovBrown

The research is clear - investments in #earlychildhood present some of the greatest returns when it comes to child and family well-being. These investments lead to increased literacy, graduation rates, higher salaries & better health outcomes for our most vulnerable communities. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Kate Brown @OregonGovBrown

We've learned that #childcare is unequivocally essential to our families, our economy, and healthy child development. We need to see greater federal investments in childcare so that all children & families have access to the high quality, culturally-responsive care they deserve. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Kate Brown @OregonGovBrown

I'm leading a coalition of Governors from CA, WI, NC, NV, NJ, MN & MI to keep voting safe, accessible & secure in light of the unprecedented attacks on voting rights. During this pandemic, we must ensure no one has to choose between their health & safety and their right to vote. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Kate Brown @OregonGovBrown

Women got the right to vote in Oregon eight years before the 19th amendment. That's thanks to the fearless, tireless work of local suffragists like Hattie Redmond, the daughter of emancipated slaves; Abigail Scott Duniway; and Dr. Esther Lovejoy. https://t.co/aiN59EgAm9 — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Kate Brown @OregonGovBrown

Today is the 100th anniversary of the 19th Amendment, which granted white women the right to vote. Expanding voter access is the way to a more equitable, better world. We must keep working to ensure every eligible voter has access to the ballot box. https://t.co/JVRLP2Rxkh — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Kate Brown @OregonGovBrown

It’s critical that the Postmaster General stick to his new pledge to reverse course on slowing mail service during a pandemic, impacting the delivery of prescriptions, mail ballots, and more. Today, Oregon joined a coalition of states suing to make sure that doesn’t happen. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Kate Brown @OregonGovBrown

These communities are already being disproportionately affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. Not providing them enough time to complete the 2020 Census would be denying these communities valuable resources needed for their recovery from this crisis. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Kate Brown @OregonGovBrown

With 1 million+ Hard to Count Oregonians, moving the Census deadline up will impact communities of color, rural, immigrant & refugee, & Tribal communities. We need to ensure a fair, accurate, complete count. Funding for health care, schools, and infrastructure is on the line. — PolitiTweet.org
