Our local Oregon State Police officers will be downtown to protect Oregonians' right to free speech and keep the peace. Let's center the Black Lives Matter movement's demands for racial justice and police accountability. It's time for bold action to reform police practices. — PolitiTweet.org

After my discussions with VP Pence and others, the federal government has agreed to withdraw federal officers from Portland. They have acted as an occupying force & brought violence. Starting tomorrow, all Customs and Border Protection & ICE officers will leave downtown Portland. — PolitiTweet.org

Just three days ago, I announced that Oregon suffered our greatest COVID-19 loss yet, with nine Oregonians dying in one day from the disease. Today, I'm devastated to announce we quickly hit a new grim record of losing 14 Oregonians. My heart is with their friends and families. — PolitiTweet.org

Oregon will always be a welcoming, safe place for all. Our 33-year-old Sanctuary Law prevents Oregon from enforcing federal immigration law, and I will uphold this to stand with Oregon's Dreamers. We are at our best when we focus on what we have in common, not what divides us. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Kate Brown @OregonGovBrown

Brought to the U.S. as kids, Dreamers embody the American dream. Oregon's 12,000 Dreamers serve in our military, work in our hospitals, pay taxes, and make our communities stronger. Though the Supreme Court recently blocked the president's attempt to end DACA, he is trying again. — PolitiTweet.org

I understand how eager teachers, students, and parents are to hear their schools' plans for fall. We know kids do better learning in-person...yet in-person classes could spread COVID-19. These requirements will help school districts make the most informed, safe decisions. https://t.co/lxZzLMn3PW — PolitiTweet.org

Some older kids (and some adults) are wondering if it's safe to wear a face covering. Hear the question from Theo, age 9, and the answer about why it's safe – and important – from Dr. Robert Pelz of @PeaceHealth_Ore. https://t.co/UZVOhhSHRx — PolitiTweet.org

Oregonians experiencing economic hardships may qualify for other help for rent, utilities, food, healthcare and more. Please visit https://t.co/MUEYa1Ecs6 or call 2-1-1 to learn what benefits might be available to you. Free interpretation provided. — PolitiTweet.org

This pandemic has had a devastating financial impact on so many Oregonians. Congress needs to step up and extend extra $600/week provided by the Federal Pandemic Unemployment Compensation, which ended yesterday. This money has been so important to help people pay bills. — PolitiTweet.org

On the 30th anniversary of the Americans with Disabilities Act, I celebrate the progress we've made in ensuring the civil rights of people with disabilities – and commit myself to continuing to reduce barriers, change perceptions, and fight for fuller inclusion. #ADA30 — PolitiTweet.org

Barley, I think I glove you. That face covering is a real home run. Thanks for being a great teammate and protecting the @HillsboroHops players and all of your fellow Oregonians. — PolitiTweet.org

Yesterday we hit a hit a grim milestone: a record nine Oregonians died from COVID-19 in a single day. They had lived in Clackamas, Deschutes, Malheur, Marion, Multnomah, and Umatilla counties. Families are mourning across the state. And we mourn with them. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Kate Brown @OregonGovBrown

This pandemic has had a devastating financial impact on hundreds of thousands of Oregonians. With the Federal Pandemic Unemployment Compensation (extra $600/week) ending today, Congress needs to step up and extend this important resource. To get help, call 2-1-1. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Kate Brown @OregonGovBrown

The overwhelming majority (86% of Americans) are doing the right thing and wearing face coverings. https://t.co/yI0qdLh9iQ — PolitiTweet.org

Starting today, kids ages 5 and up must wear a face covering in public indoor spaces, as well as outdoors when they can't physically distance. To answer their questions, check out Kids Ask, Doctors Answer series. Today's stars Lily, age 6, and Dr. Renee Edwards from @OHSUNews. https://t.co/xiz2Ozygcx — PolitiTweet.org

To effectively stop the spread of COVID-19, the people who call to say you may have been exposed to the virus should speak the same languages as who they're calling. Culturally-responsive health programs are a commonsense way to bring racial equity to our COVID-19 response. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Kate Brown @OregonGovBrown

Protecting your health means wearing a face covering. It also means keeping up with doctor appointments like well-child visits, care for chronic conditions, as well as emergency care. https://t.co/NU87dNbZki — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Kate Brown @OregonGovBrown

We need to take real and concrete action to reform police training. For law enforcement to have the respect and support of all Oregonians, it is important that police officer training and certification be credible and transparent. https://t.co/Erd9JsIno4 — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Kate Brown @OregonGovBrown

Starting tomorrow, kids ages 5 and up must wear a face covering in public indoor spaces and outdoors when they can't physically distance. To answer questions, check out our new series: Kids Ask, Doctors Answer. First up: Baxter, age 6, and Dr. Renee Edwards from @OHSUNews. https://t.co/WRIrWezApe — PolitiTweet.org

What's at stake: money ($1.2 trillion in federal funding) and power (Congressional seats). I remain committed to making sure that every Oregonian is counted and represented in the Census. https://t.co/tj1KgLZzKy — PolitiTweet.org

Oregon, we carefully ventured out onto the ice together, but it has begun to crack. COVID-19 is spreading too quickly, particularly in parts of rural Oregon. Before we fall through the ice, it’s time to take a step back with new rules to help slow the spread of this disease. https://t.co/XBSbRy2HwE — PolitiTweet.org

The Trump administration is not interested in problem-solving. The Trump administration is not interested in public safety. They are interested in political theater. — PolitiTweet.org

Our dedicated @OregonGuard service members wear face coverings to slow the spread of COVID-19. Hear why they're asking you to do the same to protect them. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Kate Brown @OregonGovBrown

It has been incredibly hard for so many to not be able to visit our loved ones in long-term care to protect them from COVID-19. Outdoor visits, with safeguards, will help restore the in-person connections that are so vital for mental and physical health and well-being. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Kate Brown @OregonGovBrown

This is a democracy, not a dictatorship. We cannot have secret police abducting people in unmarked vehicles. I can’t believe I have to say that to the President of the United States. https://t.co/m7iejhPtyP — PolitiTweet.org
