  • BIPOC Caucus Condemns Passage of Texas Abortion
    PRESS RELEASE OREGON HOUSE DEMOCRATS For Immediate Release For more information, Contact: Sep. 2, 2021 Hannah Kurowski: [email protected] CORRECTION: BIPOC Caucus Condemns Passage of SB 8, Calls for Protection of Abortion as Essential Health Care CORRECTION The following members of the BIPOC Caucus sign onto this statement: • Senators: Lew Frederick, Kayse Jama, James Manning • Representatives: Teresa Alonso Leon, Wlnsvey Campos, Andrea Valderrama, Mark Meek, Khanh Pham, Ricki Ruiz, Andrea Salinas, Tawna Sanchez SALEM, OR -- The Legislative Black, Indigenous, People of Color (BIPOC) Caucus released the following statement after the Texas Governor signed into law Senate Bill 8 (SB 8) to ban abortions after six weeks, as well as encourages private citizens to act as bounty hunters: “Roe vs Wade enshrined reproductive health care as a constitutionally protected right. In Oregon, we have a long history of protecting reproductive rights and removing barriers to accessing abortion because we know abortion is healthcare. "If SB 8 remains in effect without intervention from courts, any abortion providers who remain operational are facing a crushing wave of lawsuits that they will likely be unable to litigate. This back-door ban presents harm to people facing severe restrictions on important health care protections. "BIPOC communities are most often forced to resort to unsafe abortions due to reproductive healthcare restrictions, a symptom of institutionalized white supremacy and patriarchy. SB 8 once again disproportionately takes away our constitutional right to make decisions about our own bodies as a worst case scenario, and forces those with the resources to travel across state lines for healthcare access as a best case scenario.

In addition to the standard policy and budget committees, the Oregon House of Representatives will have new committees in the upcoming session to address timely issues, including wildfire recovery, redistricting, institutional reform of the Legislature, as well as subcommittees focusing on COVID-19 response, equitable policing and the return of a policy committee dedicated to early childhood issues. “Oregonians are facing crises that demand urgent action. The House is ready to lead on the issues that matter most in people’s lives right now. We also need to create the space to have a focused conversation about long-term, transformational changes to modernize the people’s legislature,” Speaker Kotek said. “I’m grateful for the diverse perspectives that my colleagues will bring as we all work together to help Oregonians navigate the big challenges that lie ahead.” Speaker Kotek communicated directly with every returning and new member of the Oregon House of Representatives before deciding on committee assignments, taking the time to weigh and discuss their priorities, interests and notable experience. She also consulted with both caucus leaders before finalizing the assignments. The House will convene on Monday, January 11 to swear in members.

    PRESS RELEASE OREGON LEGISLATIVE BLACK, INDIGENOUS AND PEOPLE OF COLOR (BIPOC) CAUCUS For Immediate Release For More Information, Contact: Jan. 5, 2021 Aaron Fiedler: 503-986-1904 [email protected] Oregon Legislature’s BIPOC Caucus Applauds Efforts to Improve Legislative Diversity and Access Issues call to keep up the work to build a more equitable Capitol SALEM, Ore. – The Oregon Legislature’s Black, Indigenous and People of Color (BIPOC) Caucus issued the following statement on the announcement of proactive steps to increase diversity in the Oregon Legislature and begin to right historic wrongs: “For the last year, we have worked together to build on the momentum of this historic moment to finally tackle generations of racial injustice and inequality in Oregon. With the help of outside organizations and the voices of countless Oregonians, we have been able to do incredible work to get resources to historically underserved communities, reform our broken criminal justice system, bring accountability to law enforcement across the state and take the first steps in building a more just and equitable Oregon for all. “We do this work on land stolen from indigenous people under a state constitution that, at its founding, specifically banned people of color. We are regularly reminded of this history whenever we sit at our desks on the floors of the Oregon House of Representatives and Oregon Senate, where murals of white settlers and the names of mostly white men hang over our heads. And, we are reminded at the historical lack of BIPOC representation in the halls of the Oregon Capitol with the acknowledgement that this is the most diverse legislature Oregon has ever had.

  • OPHA Bill HB2337 Info Sheet Racism Is a Public Health Crisis
    OPHA Bill HB2337 Info Sheet Racism is a Public Health Crisis Purpose • Declare racism as a public health crisis in Oregon. • Acknowledge Oregon’s racist history and its current day impact on policies and systems that perpetuate in- stitutional racism which causes harm, trauma, illness and death to Black, Indigenous, and people of color (BIPOC) Oregonians, and the need to heal these injustices through accelerated intentional actions. • Articulate investments and strategies needed to address health inequities among BIPOC Oregonians and Oregon Tribes: Invest in the following key strategies: 1. The collection of race, ethnicity, language, and disability (REAL-D) data is critical for better understanding population health by systematically measuring more granular level data to reveal the unique inequities faced by specific communities across the state. In turn, this data informs future investments in addressing health inequi- ties to focus efforts specifically where they are needed most and thereby more effectively and efficiently use and save state resources. a. Expands the collection of REAL-D data to all state agencies, subcontractors and vendors as practica- ble. b. Clarifies representation on advisory committees that informs updates to data collection standards are diverse and include at minimum: BIPOC community members, the nine federally recognized Oregon Tribes (if there is interest in participating), people with disabilities, and people with limited English profi- ciency. 2. Local public health authorities provide data to Oregon Health Authority (OHA) to develop a statewide mobile health unit plan. These units will focus on providing basic health, behavioral health, oral health, and connection to other wraparound services specifically for BIPOC communities.
