John — No matter the landscape in Washington, D.C., I promise I’ll always fight to protect Oregon's values and keep our state a welcoming place for everyone — including the right to live as your full self and love who you love.

With President Trump's recent actions targeting diversity efforts, blocking gender-affirming healthcare, and bringing back the ban on transgender individuals serving in the military, the fight to protect the fundamental freedoms of the LGBTQ+ community has never been more important or relevant.

Oregon’s community thrives on diversity. Protecting each and every community during these shaky times is a non-negotiable. Sign on and stand in solidarity with LGBTQ+ Oregonians. Together, let's ensure President Trump's harmful agenda doesn't threaten the rights of our communities.

We must continue to fight against any measures that put protections for LGBTQ+ individuals at risk. Oregon's true self shines bright when its people do, unashamed and accepted — let’s keep it that way.

— Tina
