The Supreme Court has spoken. And while we are disappointed in the decision, we respect their ruling and thank the justices for their thoughtful consideration on this matter. This ruling represents the end of my campaign for governor. But I’m not going anywhere.

Today, I’m rolling out my plan on how we can improve education in our state — my second policy plan in two weeks. Why is education a top priority? Oregon cannot be as successful of a state if we don’t do a better job supporting our children and educators. nickfororegon.com/policy/full-pl…
$100k?! That’s how much the median sale price of a single-family home in Bend increased in a year. I’m for a range of innovative ideas along with streamlining of bureaucratic permitting to address our housing supply crisis. We urgently need to boost housing supply.
State government must lead, and the governor needs to create an all-hands-on-deck process to address the housing crisis. I would: * Appoint an official to oversee efforts * Hold a summit to get everyone on board * Emphasize increasing supply to hold down rents
We all know Oregon can be better. That’s why I’m launching my policy vision outlining how, working together, we make Oregon a place of opportunity and hope for all. My first plan explains how I believe we can address our housing and homelessness crises: nickfororegon.com/policy/full-pl…
The Nick for Oregon campaign today voluntarily recognized its independent staff union, which is the first time workers on an Oregon statewide campaign have unionized.
Today we remember the 6 million Jews and millions of others who were murdered by the Nazi regime. As our country sees a resurgence of anti-Semitism, we need to speak out for our Jewish neighbors who are being personally attacked for their beliefs and heritage.
I traveled to Eastern Oregon this week to listen. And the one thing all Oregonians agree on is this: We are not the best we can be. I’m focused on one thing: pouring my soul into an effort to help our state meet the challenges we face.
Fantastic news: We’ve now received donations from all 36 counties in our state, from more than 6,100 Oregonians who have helped us raise $2.7 million! Special thanks to Sherman County, which today made our statewide support complete.
I stand with our frontline workers — don’t cross the picket line. opb.org/article/2022/0…
Started today in Clatsop County at the Astoria Armory community and event center, and met with @Indivisible_OR members from Warrenton. Hearing Oregonians’ concerns about affordable housing underscores our need to address this challenge and others so we can all prosper.
When employers act like this, it’s simple to understand why workers who aren’t treated fairly want to strike. Treat workers, especially these frontline workers, with dignity and respect by providing a fair wage, strong benefits, and a safe workplace. opb.org/article/2022/0…
My campaign team, my wife and I appreciated the opportunity to meet and serve our neighbors at @blanchethouse, an organization committed to the belief that everyone deserves dignity, hope and community.
A reminder that working people - whether white, Black or brown - need to join together to fight for our future, just like we have won better wages, safer workplaces, and civil rights in our past. #racialjustice #economicjustice
This afternoon, @NickKristof and a group of Team Nick for Oregon staffers will volunteer at @blanchethouse for #MLKDayofService.
Every #MLKDay, I read Dr. King's "Letter from a Birmingham Jail." Highly recommended: Truly one of the great essays of social justice in American history, forcing each of us to think about our own roles. Check it out: csuchico.edu/iege/_assets/d…
"Somewhere we must come to see that social progress never rolls in on the wheels of inevitability. It comes through the tireless efforts and the persistent work of dedicated individuals." #MLKDay
At a care facility in Oregon for people with dementia, overworked staff grew horrified at the toll on patients, with 20 dying over two months. So workers tried to organize a union, and the battle that followed showed the need for better labor laws nyti.ms/33mU6DL
