Time and time again, Christine Drazen refuses to push back against Trump with conviction. In a recent interview with the Oregonian, Drazan was asked what specifically have you done to push back against Trump??? Once again, she missed the mark. ļæ¼ Oregonians need a governor who will protect us!
I still have Hopeā¦..
But I hardly recognize this country anymore.
Donāt believe Christine Drazan when she says that abortion is a settled issue in Oregon!
There is a lot the media isnāt showing.
Bottom lineā¦. Christine Drazan canāt be trusted to protect your reproductive freedom!

Amplifying this video from Rep. Sosaās social media page. Allowing lenders to charge up to 200% interest on vulnerable Oregonians is outrageous! Christine Drazan is NO champion for consumers.
In 2023, Nurses and healthcare workers from across the state of Oregon came together to pass Oregonās bipartisan Safe Nurse Staffing Law. That law put safe patient care before CEO pay. In a recent live televised debate, Christine Drazan trashed the law and made it clear that she would repeal it.
Stay tuned.
Christine Drazan attacked Tina Kotek in the latest debate for supporting Oregonās historic Nurse safe staffing law.
Healthcare workers canāt trust Christine Drazan to put patients before CEO pay.
In 2025, Christine Drazan told the Capitol Chronicle that she supported Donald Trumpās decision to send troops to Oregon.
We cannot trust Drazan to defend Oregon against Trump!
Christine Drazan never pushes back against Trump in a forceful way. Yesterday, Trump suggested that Iran could destroy 2 west coast cities and she has yet to issue a strong statement.
How can Oregonians expect her to defend Oregon if sheās governor???
Interested in social housing? Iāll be participating in a panel discussion with some really smart folks in the context of design and feasibility. Register here
We canāt let Christine Drazan rewrite history. I found the statement she issued when Trump announced that he was sending troops to Portland. Despite what she now implies, she didnāt oppose Trump sending troops to Portland. Thankfully, Tina Kotek & Dan Rayfield successfully fought off Trump!
TGIF!
Taking a little time to stop and smell the roses after my workout and before my day begins.
I hope you have a great day!
Oh, and VOTE for Tina Kotek!

Last Nov., I met Abdul El-Sayed at a small gathering of progressive healthcare leaders in Portland. I didnāt know anything about him. I just knew that he was a champion for universal healthcare, running for US Senate in Michigan as an underdog. Now heās the front runner for the seat! !
Weāve recently updated our website. We do none of this work alone. It takes community and colleagues willing to come together to accomplish things FOR THE PEOPLE.
Iāll add that Tina Kotek made everything on this list happen!
Today, Iām joining the Happy Cell Song Challenge!
Thereās a lot of power in staying positive.

I had a great time serving as Chair of the Multnomah County Democrats Platform Convention this weekend!
Really?!? Christine Drazan is choosing Ron DeSantis to bring to Oregon?
I was recently appointed to the Oregon Hunger Task Force by Speaker Fahey. Nearly 80,000 Oregonians have been cut off from food benefits thanks to the āBig Beautiful Billā signed by Trump. Thousands more have had access to food reduced. No one who needs food should go without!
āThe new pollā¦. showed the president with a 29 percent overall approval rating, with positive views on the economy at 26 percent.
Overall, 72 percent of those surveyed said they felt the U.S. economy was getting worse amid rising gas and grocery pricesā
