This is a pivotal moment for Oregon. We must also recognize that it has been exceptionally difficult for our Black, Indigenous, Latinx, Asian and Pacific Islanders, and Tribal communities. Disparities that existed before are even wider now. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Kate Brown @OregonGovBrown

As I have detailed before, that means no more statewide mask mandates in most settings, no required capacity limits, and no required physical distancing. It means, effectively, Oregon is 100% open for business. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Kate Brown @OregonGovBrown

To give Oregonians certainty as we prepare to transition into this next phase, when Oregon reaches 70% of adults vaccinated, or by Wednesday, June 30 — whichever comes first— we will lift the safety protocols we have relied on and reopen our economy. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Kate Brown @OregonGovBrown

I’m proud of our collective efforts to vaccinate more than 2.3 million Oregonians. It is because of this success that we can move Oregon forward, and into the next chapter of the pandemic. We are ready. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Kate Brown @OregonGovBrown

Just Monday, I saw a young man who had just turned 12 the day before excitedly line up at a community clinic to get his first dose. The vaccines have proven to be our strongest defense against COVID-19. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Kate Brown @OregonGovBrown

Now, thanks to tireless efforts by state and local public health agencies, hospitals, health systems, pharmacies and community-based organizations, these life saving vaccines are readily available to any Oregonian age 12 and older. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Kate Brown @OregonGovBrown

In December, when the arrival of safe and effective vaccines marked a new, hopeful phase, we still had to work our way through the early days of a painfully limited supply. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Kate Brown @OregonGovBrown

We have faced some difficult times this past year. Oregonians have made extraordinary sacrifices to protect our communities from this virus. Oregon has consistently been among the lowest per-capita case counts in the U.S., and among the lowest infection rates & deaths. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Kate Brown @OregonGovBrown

As we near the end of June—more than 15 months since the first case of COVID-19 was detected in Oregon—we find ourselves entering a new chapter of the pandemic. Over 2.3 million Oregonians are now vaccinated, and we are so close to 70% of Oregon’s adults vaccinated. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Kate Brown @OregonGovBrown

When policy makers hold authentic community engagement and have honest and open conversations about race, the result is thoughtful policy that helps us move forward. Thank you to everyone who worked hard this session to help make Oregon a better, safer, and stronger state. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Kate Brown @OregonGovBrown

We recognize that we need to build back better, to create a more just and equitable Oregon. I am thankful to Oregon’s Racial Justice Council, Reimagine Oregon, and the entire BIPOC Caucus in the Legislature for their leadership in addressing Oregon’s history of racism & division. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Kate Brown @OregonGovBrown

There are many challenges ahead for our state—from the economic impacts of the pandemic, to wildfire recovery and preparedness, to addressing systemic racism. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Kate Brown @OregonGovBrown

Before I start with a COVID update, I want to address the accomplishments of this year’s legislative session. This session has marked a turning point for Oregon, from fighting COVID-19, getting Oregonians back to work, and making sure our recovery efforts are reaching everyone. — PolitiTweet.org
