    Oregon schools are getting ready for students to return to the classroom this fall. For students and families, this can be a mix of stress, excitement and opportunity. It’s important we all show up with care and connection as we begin the new school year.

    Fire danger is real and playing in the forest is fun, but delaying favorite activities like OHV trail riding or campfires in restricted areas isn't real fun. Thank you for doing your part to prevent human-caused wildfires.

    We're right in the middle of fire season, so it's extremely important that we stay prepared. Stock up on essential emergency supplies, create an evacuation plan with your family, and make sure you're signed up for emergency alerts.

    Couldn't agree more, . In Oregon, we're investing in EV infrastructure, taking climate action, and creating 21st century jobs. I'm happy to see this administration doing the same on a national level. EVs are the future. 🔌

    The future of the auto industry is electric. There’s no turning back.

    The more contagious Delta variant has changed everything. We must protect our frontline health care workers from severe illness and patients seeking care. I've directed to require weekly COVID-19 testing for personnel in health care settings, or proof of vaccination.

    The recent extreme heat hit our agriculture industry hard, including Oregon's berry and cherry growers who reported up to 80% loss. Grateful for strong partners in the Biden-Harris administration to help address the impacts of climate-related disasters on our agriculture sector.
