1/ Regarding Dept. of Homeland Security Sec. Chad Wolf's visit:

As part of a statewide law enforcement delegation to discuss recent responses to demonstrations in Portland, I was invited to meet with Department of Homeland Security Secretary Chad Wolf...
2/ I was under the impression this was going to be a thoughtful, honest and open discussion, but following statements made by Sec. Wolf, it became clear law enforcement in the City of Portland was becoming highly politicized, and for that reason, I declined to meet.

Today I submitted my testimony to #ORLeg House Judiciary Committee in support of #HB4145, a bill to close a dangerous loophole & better protect victims of domestic violence, as well as law enforcement who respond to their calls for help. Full text: facebook.com/notes/mike-ree…

@MultCoSO Simply put, #HB4145 would take guns out of dangerous and volatile situations by prohibiting domestic abusers with restraining orders and convicted stalkers from possessing firearms. #orleg

1/- Our community is safer when all people feel confident about going to local law enforcement when they need help.
2/- We need all Mult Co residents, no matter their immigration status, to feel confident going to law enforcement w/o worry of deportation.
