Christine Drazan can't be trusted! As a state legislator, she opposed the Oregon POWER Act, which shifted the burden of rising utility costs onto large users, such as data centers and cryptocurrency stores, while also providing relief for residential energy customers. Now this:

Image of Drazan with text: NEW REPORT As a state legislator, Drazan opposed the Oregon POWER Act, which shifted the burden of rising utility costs onto large users, such as data centers and cryptocurrency stores, while also providing relief for residential energy customers.Text only: Here's what Oregonians are reading about Drazan's shady dealings: Hoodline: "For voters, the distinction is straightforward even if the accounting is not: a disclosed insider transaction can be lawful, but it still benefits from independent review and a written conflict policy." Grants Pass Tribune: "Board minutes, consulting contracts, invoices describing the services performed, market comparisons supporting the compensation and written analyses explaining the board's decision have not been made available for independent review. Without those documents, outside observers are unable to determine how the organization evaluated the consulting arrangement or whether comparable services were considered before payments were approved." The story has also appeared in the Oregonian, Klamath Fall Herald and News, and Portland Tribune.

Trying to get anything done in the Senate feels like wading through tar. Senator Steve Daines and I have a bipartisan proposal to get back to debating, negotiating, and actually passing bills.

Thank you to all the workers and trainers that showed up this week for our Federal Organizing Institute! We’re so proud of these union members who are heading back to their workplaces with the tools to organize and defend our federal services.

“Make no mistake, if Christine Drazan were to win in November, she would bring the same far-right, anti-worker, anti-union set of policies right here in our great state." - President Graham Trainor, Oregon Labor Federation AFL-CIO

THIS IS SOLIDARITY IN ACTION! Oregon AFSCME, ONA, and SEIU 49 members at Legacy Emanuel and Good Sam are fighting for a fair contract, and union members across unions within the healthcare system showed up to support them.

Union members from SEIU 49, Oregon AFSCME, and ONA stood together today at Legacy Emanuel and Legacy Good Sam to take a stand for a fair contract with the dignity and respect caregivers and their patients deserve. This is what solidarity looks like!
