This is no time for Oregonians to lose their homes or businesses. Thanks to legislators, today I extended the residential & commercial eviction bans through Sept 30. Renters can repay back rent through March 31, 2021 without late fees or being reported to credit agencies. https://t.co/sgFIIEcaWe — PolitiTweet.org

In Oregon, voting from home has bipartisan support. Take it from Republican @OregonSOS Bev Clarno. While COVID-19 has disrupted in-person elections around the country, Oregon had record turnout for the May primary, and no one had to risk their health to cast their ballot. — PolitiTweet.org

Since the beginning of this pandemic, grocery employees have worked selflessly to keep Oregonians fed. The Northwest Grocery Association is issuing an "urgent call to the public" to wear a mask, no matter the grocery store. Please help keep our grocery employees and stores safe. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Kate Brown @OregonGovBrown

Please keep your 4th of July celebrations small & local. We saw a lot of new COVID-19 cases after Memorial Day weekend. Another spike could put Oregon in a dangerous position of our hospitals being overwhelmed by new cases and hospitalizations within weeks. Be smart, please. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Kate Brown @OregonGovBrown

I do not want to have to close down businesses again like other states are now doing. If you want your local shops and restaurants to stay open, then wear a face covering when out in public. It's up to all of us what happens next. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Kate Brown @OregonGovBrown

Keeping Oregonians safe is my top priority. Over the last month, COVID-19 spread at an alarming rate in both urban and rural counties. That's why I'm requiring face coverings in indoor public places in ALL counties, effective 7/1. We can & must reduce the spread of this disease. https://t.co/txZyucIsqm — PolitiTweet.org

Many will continue to attack and try to chip away at reproductive rights. Here in Oregon, I will continue to defend access to the full complement of reproductive health care services for all. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Kate Brown @OregonGovBrown

To lead thriving lives, Oregonians must have the ability to control our own bodies and make informed decisions about our health. Today, the U.S. Supreme Court's decision adhered to decades of its own precedent to maintain protections for our reproductive rights and freedom. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Kate Brown @OregonGovBrown

Pride is a time to celebrate our successes, and also double down on our efforts to ensure that everyone in our communities has the opportunity to unabashedly be themselves, here in Oregon and across the country. #PrideDay — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Kate Brown @OregonGovBrown

Today, on June 28th, 1969, a riot started at the Stonewall Inn. The riots were led by black, trans, and bi women, to the continued traditions of this spirited celebration, it’s important to celebrate the rich history of all that has created pride in our communities. https://t.co/LzWRY0Db7z — PolitiTweet.org

I've always admired how Oregonians look out for each other. Now those who have recovered from COVID-19 can help other Oregonians by donating their plasma, which contains critical antibodies that may be used to create an experimental treatment. Learn more: https://t.co/HAU3RQ224z — PolitiTweet.org

Protect yourself, your family, and your community by wearing a face covering. Support your community by buying it from a local business. https://t.co/6zrYhBtLVk — PolitiTweet.org

When it comes to preventing wildfires, there’s a lot at stake. In 2018, we had 897,263 acres burn in Oregon; over 70% of our wildfires are started by people, often from debris burning or unattended campfires.

I’m going live on Facebook in 15 minutes to discuss the end of special session—COVID-19 and police accountability. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Kate Brown @OregonGovBrown

I called a special session to address two crises affecting Oregonians: the economic impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic and the epidemic of police violence. I'm proud of what legislators accomplished, but it's not the end of this work. It’s the beginning. https://t.co/b4cwUbsxm8 — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Kate Brown @OregonGovBrown

Face coverings will save lives. Last week, I announced the 7 counties where it's required to wear a face covering in indoor, public spaces. Other counties can request to opt in. Clatsop County Board of Commissioners requested to join and will be the 8th county, effective 7/1. https://t.co/C61MNtHs7a — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Kate Brown @OregonGovBrown

Healthcare reduces human suffering. To rip away protections – in the middle of public health crisis – is extraordinarily cruel. Thanks in part to the Affordable Care Act, 95% of Oregonians have healthcare. If the President gets his way, 546,000+ Oregonians could lose coverage. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Kate Brown @OregonGovBrown

The success of Oregon's students depends on feeling seen, safe, and welcome, however you identify. I am committed to supporting strategies that are grounded in equity and will support Oregon's LGBTQ youth on the path to achievement. #Pride — PolitiTweet.org

To all of the Oregonians marching every night to call for racial justice, know that I stand with you. And I want you to stay healthy. https://t.co/eWrE23Fm9t — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Kate Brown @OregonGovBrown

For weeks, Oregonians have taken to the streets calling for racial justice. Together, we are working toward creating a more racially- and economically-just Oregon. I am hopeful I will be able to sign into Oregon law bills on true police accountability and reform. #orpol #orleg https://t.co/B9sal125Rc — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Kate Brown @OregonGovBrown

I took immediate action in March to halt evictions so Oregon families could stay in their homes during this pandemic. Now, we need further action to aid Oregonians who, through no fault of their own, have struggled to pay rent during this crisis. #Orleg #Orpol https://t.co/V5wGUYThYH — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Kate Brown @OregonGovBrown

Today marks 7 years since the Voting Rights Act was gutted, leading to voter suppression in communities of color nationwide. The House passed a law nearly 200 days ago to #RestoretheVRA; now the Senate MUST act. Voting rights shouldn’t be partisan. https://t.co/grv2CfPwbp — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Kate Brown @OregonGovBrown

Your health & safety is my top priority during this pandemic. As governors, we have the chance to craft a blueprint that puts the needs of our underserved communities at the forefront, creating a more equitable society. I'm proud to serve Oregon every day. https://t.co/LfjwmxHd9p — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Kate Brown @OregonGovBrown

Today the mask requirement for public indoor spaces goes into effect for Multnomah, Clackamas, Washington, Marion, Polk, Hood River, and Lincoln counties. This will save lives. Let me share with you why I wear a mask, and why I hope you will too. https://t.co/qgvguWWodb — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Kate Brown @OregonGovBrown

There are some mask myths circulating on social media. The fact is, masks are an excellent way to reduce the spread of COVID-19, along with physical distancing and hand washing. So wear a mask and spread the word – not the virus. https://t.co/dY7IUJo441 — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Kate Brown @OregonGovBrown

Throughout this pandemic, telehealth has provided Oregonians with essential access to health care services that otherwise might have been unavailable. I'd like to thank insurers for partnering with us to continue to make telehealth options available. https://t.co/VVfxfA2oAW — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Kate Brown @OregonGovBrown

Local businesses will only be able to stay open if each of us does our part to follow health and safety protections like wearing a mask or face covering. The coffee shop, your favorite restaurant, your gym, the brewery down the street: they can only stay open if you stay safe. https://t.co/WCBEazEuTp — PolitiTweet.org

Mr. President, please explain: Why should vote-by-mail be reserved exclusively for residents of 1600 Pennsylvania Ave? — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Kate Brown @OregonGovBrown

https://t.co/3mr7XzKy0R This is bonkers and completely unacceptable. Going from 3700 polling locations down to 200 for Tuesday’s election. This isn’t what democracy looks like. — PolitiTweet.org
