Oregon's future should be decided by Oregonians, so... listen to this famous Californian?
Oregon's future shouldn't be dictated by trillion-dollar corporations - it should be decided by Oregonians. I'm proud to stand alongside @Janefonda in the fight to put people over mega-corporate interests. As your Governor, that's exactly what I'll continue to do.
