You are a fail radicalize shill. You are basing your whole premise on the fact that you think nothing is being done.

 

  1. You assume nothing is being done.

  2. You forget that even if it ever came down to be that they really weren't doing anything, that our ability to still take up arms is some how gone.

  3. About the only way your premise makes sense is if they tried to either legislate or physically take our guns away, which then what you say would make sense.

  4. You forget all the things that have been done so far which hamper and expose the criminals. Things like this place, that you seemingly are trying to incite to rash action.

  5. Until they try to take our guns away, this will always remain an option.

  6. Doing what you are suggesting here would only result in thousands of needless American deaths at this time and weaken us further which I'm sure our enemies would love.

KEK. Just goes to show you how polls can be manipulated. People rarely seem to notice that there is a reason why the poll creators get to pick your options for answers.

Governor Kate Brown Extends COVID-19 State of Emergency for Sixty Days

June 30, 2020

“Oregon, you have a choice. What happens next is up to all of us.”

Salem, OR—Governor Kate Brown today extended her declaration of a state of emergency regarding COVID-19 for an additional 60 days, until September 4, and issued the following statement:

 

“When I first declared a state of emergency due to the coronavirus, there were 14 cases of COVID-19 in Oregon. Today, there have been over 8,600 cases, with over a quarter of those cases identified in the previous two weeks of June. While hospitalizations remain relatively low, we have seen how rapidly those numbers can climb. And, sadly, 207 Oregonians have lost their lives to this disease. Without a doubt, COVID-19 continues to pose a real and present threat to Oregonians in communities across the state, from Malheur County to Umatilla to Lincoln.

 

“In the months since those first cases were discovered, we have shored up our supplies of personal protective equipment, worked with counties to hire contact tracers, and––despite the failures of the federal government to supply Oregon with an equitable amount of testing materials––we have expanded our statewide testing capability. And, thanks to the tremendous sacrifices Oregonians made by staying home in the spring, we prevented 1,500 hospitalizations and over 70,000 COVID-19 infections.

 

“Now, we again find ourselves at a crossroads as a state. The individual choices each of us makes will decide whether Oregon either flattens the curve of new COVID-19 infections, or sees a devastating spike in cases that overwhelms our hospital capacity in the next month.

 

“If we all follow the advice of doctors––if you wear a face covering in public, if you wash your hands, if you cover your mouth and nose when you cough and sneeze, if you stay home when you are sick––together, we can keep our friends and loved ones healthy and safe.

Governor Kate Brown Statement on U.S. Supreme Court Decision on the Louisiana Abortion Case

June 29, 2020

Salem, OR—Governor Kate Brown issued the following statement today on the U.S. Supreme Court decision in June Medical Services v. Russo:

 

“Today, the U.S. Supreme Court took action to uphold constitutional protections of women’s reproductive rights and freedom. The court's decision today affirms what we know: everybody should have the freedom to make their own decisions about their health, families, lives, and future.

 

“I was proud to sign Oregon’s Reproductive Health Equity Act into law in 2017. It was a first of its kind bill that expanded access to reproductive health services for all Oregonians. A culmination of decades of work at the hands of lawmakers and community organizations, House Bill 3391 established immediate protections for women’s right to choose, and cemented Oregon as a leader in reproductive health care access.

 

“With the Reproductive Health Equity Act, Oregon became the first state to require insurance companies to cover the full spectrum of reproductive health care for all people, including expanded postpartum care coverage, counseling for domestic abuse and tobacco use, breastfeeding support, and FDA-approved contraception. HB 3391 also prohibits discrimination on the basis of gender identity in reproductive health coverage, ensuring all Oregonians can access life-saving preventive care, such as cancer screenings.

 

“At a time when this fundamental right to access reproductive health care is being challenged across the nation, Oregon’s legislation continues to help people across the state lead healthy and productive lives.”

 

“But, make no mistake about this decision, many will continue to attack and try to chip away at women’s reproductive rights. Here in Oregon, we will continue to fight for everyone's access to the full complement of reproductive health care services for all people.”

Governor Kate Brown Commends Legislature for Taking Action on Police Accountability, Evictions, and Foreclosures in Special Session

June 26, 2020

Salem, OR—Governor Kate Brown today commended legislators for taking action during the 2020 First Special Session on a number of priority pieces of legislation, including bills for police accountability and reform, as well as bills extending protections for Oregonian families against residential and commercial evictions and foreclosures.

 

Governor Kate Brown will hold a press availability tomorrow, Saturday, June 27 at 12:30 pm to discuss the 2020 First Special Session.

 

A video message from Governor Brown on the special session is available here .

 

Governor Brown convened the special session to improve police accountability and address issues impacting Oregonian families during the COVID-19 pandemic.

 

“I called the Oregon Legislature together because I have been concerned that Oregon needs to take further action in response to two crises unfolding across the country,” said Governor Brown. “The first is related to the ongoing and urgent concerns caused by the COVID-19 crisis and the economic threat the pandemic poses to people who were already struggling to get by.

 

"The moratoriums on evictions and foreclosure will go a long way to ensuring working families can stay in their homes and small businesses can continue operating amidst the pandemic.

 

“I also called lawmakers into this special session in order to respond to the clarion call for police reform. Across the state, tens of thousands of Oregonians have taken to the streets to demand racial justice and police accountability.

 

“It will take far more work to set our state on a path toward racial justice, but these are very important steps forward.”

 

A second special session will be convened later in the summer to take up issues related to the state budget.

 

"We are holding off on the next session for a few weeks to give Congress time to take action," said Governor Brown. "And I hope Congressional leaders will hear the call from states across the country and step in with additional federal support.

"In the meantime, there are some additional investments that we must make with existing federal dollars.

 

"Next week I’ll be sharing a plan with the Legislature to use Coronavirus Relief Fund dollars to support our Black communities, for investments in health equity, and to provide relief for working people who need to take time off if they are sick with COVID-19.

 

"It is incredibly important that we get dollars to the communities most impacted by the pandemic. And that we help working people when they need to stay home from work due to the disease."

 

Key legislation passed during the 2020 First Special Session include:

 

Police Accountability

• SB 1604 – Limits the ability of an arbitrator to overturn police discipline when a law enforcement agency uses a discipline guide.

• HB 4201 – Establishes a legislative joint committee to examine use of force and transparency.

• HB 4205 – Directs the Department of Public Safety Standards and Training (DPSST) to adopt rules requiring police officers to intervene to stop certain acts of misconduct such as excessive force or acts of discrimination. Officers who report misconduct should not face retaliation.

• HB 4207 – Directs DPSST to establish a statewide database for police officers whose state certification have been suspended or revoked.

• HB 4208 – Limits the use of tear gas by law enforcement for crowd control, unless event has been declared a riot.

• HB 4203 – Limits the use of force by police officers that would impede breathing or blood circulation, unless circumstances would justify deadly force.

 

Evictions and Foreclosures

• HB 4213 – Codifying the moratorium on residential and commercial evictions the Governor first put in place through executive order, allowing working families to stay in their apartments and homes and small businesses to continue operating. The bill also creates a payback period to give Oregonians time to catch back up on payments they've missed.

• HB 4204 – Creating a moratorium on foreclosures so people and small businesses who are late on their mortgage payments don’t lose their home or place of business while they are working to get back on track.

 

Rural Broadband Access

• SB 1603 – Makes a significant investment in rural broadband internet access, a critical investment for rural Oregon schools.

 

COVID-19 Response: Safe Local Government, CARES Act Payment Protection

• HB 4212 – Implements a number of COVID-19 response measures, including protecting CARES Act payments from garnishment so federal dollars go directly into people’s pockets and allowing local governments to continue operating while providing public access through remote and virtual meetings during the COVID-19 pandemic. The bill also allows for online notarization to protect public health.

Governor Kate Brown Extends Face Coverings Requirement Statewide

June 29, 2020

Face covering requirements apply to indoor public spaces, take effect on Wednesday, July 1

Portland, OR—Governor Kate Brown announced today that Oregonians statewide will be required to wear face coverings in indoor public spaces, beginning this Wednesday July 1. The guidance applies to businesses and members of the public visiting indoor public spaces. Face covering requirements are already mandated in eight counties.

 

“From the beginning of the reopening process, I have said that reopening comes with the risk of seeing an increase in COVID-19 cases beyond our health systems’ capacity to test, trace, and isolate them,” said Governor Kate Brown. “Over the last month, we have seen the disease spread at an alarming rate in both urban and rural counties. The upcoming July 4th holiday weekend is a critical point for Oregon in this pandemic, and we can all make a difference.

 

“Modeling from the Oregon Health Authority shows that if we don’t take further action to reduce the spread of the disease, our hospitals could be overwhelmed by new COVID-19 cases and hospitalizations within weeks.

 

“The choices every single one of us make in the coming days matter.

 

“Face coverings that cover your nose and mouth play a critical role in reducing the spread of this disease because droplets from our breath can carry the virus to others without us realizing it. If we all wear face coverings, practice six feet of physical distancing in public, wash our hands regularly, and stay home when we are sick, then we can avoid the worst-case scenarios that are now playing out in other states.

 

“I do not want to have to close down businesses again like other states are now doing. If you want your local shops and restaurants to stay open, then wear a face covering when out in public.

 

“Please keep your Fourth of July celebrations small and local. We saw a lot of new COVID-19 cases following the Memorial Day holiday. Another spike in cases after the upcoming holiday weekend could put Oregon in a dangerous position.

 

“Oregonians have all made incredible sacrifices over the last several months that have saved thousands of lives. The actions we take now can protect our friends, neighbors, loved ones, and fellow Oregonians from this disease, and prevent the need for another statewide shutdown. We are truly all in this together.”

 

Oregon Occupational Safety and Health (OSHA) will take the lead, along with other state and local agencies, in enforcing face covering requirements for all covered Oregon businesses.

Governor Kate Brown Announces Decision to Commute Sentences of 57 Medically Vulnerable Adults in Custody A case-by-case review conducted by the Oregon Department of Corrections screened adults in custody for underlying health conditions, crimes committed, prison conduct, time serv

June 25, 2020

A case-by-case review conducted by the Oregon Department of Corrections screened adults in custody for underlying health conditions, crimes committed, prison conduct, time served, and determined that they do not present an unacceptable public safety risk

Portland, OR—Governor Kate Brown today announced that she will commute the sentences of 57 medically vulnerable adults in custody, due to their risk for significant health challenges should they contract COVID-19. This decision comes following the Governor’s direction to the Oregon Department of Corrections (DOC) to perform a case-by-case analysis of adults in custody vulnerable to COVID-19. DOC’s review identified individuals who:

 

• Are particularly vulnerable to COVID-19, as identified by DOC medical staff;

• Are not serving a sentence for a person crime;

• Have served at least 50% of their sentence;

• Have a record of good conduct for the last 12 months;

• Have a suitable housing plan;

• Have their out-of-custody health care needs assessed and adequately addressed; and

• Do not present an unacceptable safety, security, or compliance risk to the community.

 

“I received a list of 61 adults in custody from the Department of Corrections for consideration of commutation. I have authorized the commutation process to begin for 57 of those individuals , all of whom are particularly vulnerable to COVID-19 and who do not present an unacceptable public safety risk. I would like to thank Director Peters and her team for their diligence in completing their case-by-case analysis,” said Governor Brown.

 

Three adults in custody were reviewed by DOC, but were not offered commutation by the Governor because they are scheduled for release within the next seven days, meaning the commutation process would not meaningfully affect their release date. One additional adult in custody on the review list was not scheduled for release until 2025, and the Governor decided that commutation at this time would be premature.

 

DOC has confirmed that 13 adults in custody on the commutation list have housing and continuity of health care plans in place. For those individuals, the commutation process can begin as soon as the adult in custody tests negative for COVID-19. The commutation process for the remaining adults in custody will begin once DOC confirms each of their housing and release plans are in place and they have tested negative for COVID-19.

 

Those granted commutation will still be subject to post-prison supervision (PPS). Time remaining on each adult in custody’s original prison sentence will be converted to post-prison supervision and added to their PPS sentence. PPS typically requires released individuals to meet a number of conditions, including regularly checking in with their parole officer, participating in substance abuse and mental health evaluations, and not possessing any firearms. Individuals who violate the terms of their PPS are subject to sanctions, including a return to prison and revocation of their commutation.

Governor Kate Brown Proclaims June 19 as Juneteenth in Oregon and Will Introduce Legislation to Make it an Official State Holiday

June 18, 2020

Governor Brown also announces task force on police training and certification

Portland, OR—Governor Kate Brown today announced that she is proclaiming June 19 as Juneteenth in Oregon—a celebration of Black American freedom and commemoration of the ending of slavery in the United States—and will introduce a bill in the 2021 legislative session that would make Juneteenth a state holiday. Governor Brown also announced that she is creating a task force focused on statewide law enforcement training, standards, and accountability.

 

“This year, celebrating Black freedom and achievement on Juneteenth is more important than ever as people across Oregon, the United States, and around the world protest systemic racism and unequivocally show that Black Lives Matter," said Governor Brown.

 

"I am proud to officially proclaim June 19 as Juneteenth in Oregon, and I will introduce a bill in the 2021 session to make Juneteenth a state holiday for years to come.

 

“I know this is a small, yet important step. I encourage all Oregonians to join me in observing Juneteenth by getting educated on systemic racism in this country and getting involved in the fight for racial justice. It’s important to me that Oregon is a place that everyone can call home, and thrive. That’s always been my focus and I remain committed to that.”

 

Governor Brown also announced plans to appoint a Public Safety Training and Standards Task Force to recommend improvements to the training and certification of Oregon law enforcement officers. The task force will be chaired by the Governor's Public Safety Policy Advisor, Constantin Severe, and members of the task force will be announced soon. Their work will focus on developing recommendations for:

 

• How to apply best practices, research, and data to officer training and certification

 

• How to best incorporate racial equity into law enforcement training and certification

 

• How to incorporate best practices on the concepts of “least amount of force necessary” for accomplishing lawful objectives, as well as de-escalation

 

• The composition of the Board on Public Safety Standards and Training and how to include additional public participation

 

• Statutory requirements for officer decertification

 

“I have been proud to see Oregonians standing up peacefully and making their voices heard in calling for racial justice and real criminal justice reform, even in the middle of this pandemic, because the need for change is so pressing,” said Governor Brown. “But words from leaders aren’t enough. We need action. It’s time for a full review of law enforcement training, certification, and decertification practices.”
