John,
It's my honor to announce that Congressman Maxwell Frost is the Keynote Speaker of this year's Wayne Morse Gala! I hope you'll join us on Saturday, June 7th for this special evening as we welcome Congressman Frost to Oregon.
Congressman Frost is the first Gen Z member of Congress and proudly represents the people of Central Florida in the House of Representatives. As a young Member of Congress and Afro-Latino, Congressman Frost brings a fresh, progressive perspective to an institution historically out of reach for young, working Black and Latino Americans.
Congressman Frost has been a dynamic leader in the fight against gun violence and empowering communities across the United States to get behind gun reform, including joining forces with those affected by the Parkland and Pulse shootings to shed light on this epidemic. He is a champion of housing affordability, healthcare and abortion rights, LGBTQ+ rights, voting rights, unions and the PRO Act, transportation, justice reform, climate change, and more.
It is always exciting to see my fellow members of Gen Z stepping up to leadership positions and speaking up in this fight for our future. Congressman Frost is truly an inspiration to Americans of all ages across our country. We are lucky to have the chance to give him a warm Democratic Party of Oregon welcome!
Please join us in this night of celebration and camaraderie.
In solidarity,
