Congratulations to Governor-elect Tina Kotek—an advocate for working families who will fight to ensure every Oregonian has a chance at a better future.
It has been my honor to serve as Governor, and I look forward to working together toward a smooth transition in January.
Two weeks ago, I had four precious 12-year-old girls, including my daughter, with me at the county fair. They were getting blue Icees and corndogs for the walk to the car and ride home. (1/21)
A bipartisan group of senators has proposed a set of badly needed updates to the antiquated Electoral Count Act. The Electoral Count Reform Act would take steps toward stopping rogue governors, state legislatures and members of Congress from ignoring valid election results. 🧵
In April, a moment we’ll never forget witnessing: Ketanji Brown Jackson being confirmed to the Supreme Court.
Now, she will be sworn in as our newest Supreme Court justice.
Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson.
As I said the day she was confirmed: You’d be hard-pressed to find someone better qualified for the job. Congratulations, Justice Jackson.
Humans should not need to be 10 years old, raped, in danger of losing their lives or in an emergency situation to have bodily autonomy and a choice about carrying a pregnancy to term. Literally ANY reason is fine and should be a private decision. #NoPermissionSlips
@johnrgregg @VGilbertMFT @Newsweek@mon_greep Also alcoholism is highly inheritable. Good you met your father and can identify/understand your genetics play a role in addiction. Not your fault!
@johnrgregg @Newsweek@mon_greep So many loved and wanted children would never have been born if their mothers had been forced to carry to term unwanted pregnancy b4 being ready and prepared to parent. We don’t ask those children “aren’t you glad your mother had abortions b4u so you could be born?” TY 4 story.
A 10-year-old girl is raped. The State forces her to remain pregnant and tells her to consider it an “opportunity.”
This isn’t Iran. This isn’t Gilead. This isn’t hypothetical.
This happened today in Ohio.
