This week is less in-person event focused and more online catch up focused. If you've been waiting for me to respond to something, please ping me again. I'm happy to do so, things just get lost in the digital ether. πŸ’™βœŒπŸΌ

My life is more than being trans. I've been a server, line cook, farm hand, nanny, Lyft driver, teacher, receptionist, job coach, housing navigator, campaign manager, field director, Political Director, Rabbi, and Human Rights Commissioner.

People ask why I'm running. Aside from rent and taxes being too high, pay too low, small businesses vanishing, and an increase in houselessness? Aside from capitulating to a hostile government? Aside from empty words with no action?

I'm running for all the trans people. Every single one.

MY FELLOW OREGONIANS

After weeks of consultation with the people in my life, it has become apparent no one is coming to save us. We need to save ourselves.

Tina Kotek has handed over our private data to a hostile government, tried to limit local control by preempting the Pre-K tax, cut funding for small business grants and rural farmers, and played politics with our food.

Rather than use her position as Governor to elevate working people, she forced a regressive transportation bill through a special session and then delayed signing it. She has bullied her way through Salem, burning bridges of all kinds.

Oregonians deserve better. We deserve someone who reflects our values of kindness, reciprocity, and consensus building. We deserve someone who is willing to do the business of government in plain view. You deserve someone who will fight tooth and nail for you.

MY FELLOW OREGONIANS part 2

That's why I am announcing my run for Governor of Oregon. Enough is enough.

While I have my criticisms of Tina's job performance, I intend for this campaign to be centered on ideas. Not personal attacks. That said, I will fight like hell for working people.

No one understands how to fight like a trans woman. Our very existence relies on our ability to resist the status quo.

I have served as a teacher, support worker, housing specialist, Rabbi, and Human Rights Commissioner for Austin, Texas.

I want to know if the working people of Oregon now want me to serve them as their 40th Governor.

Let's find out, together.

The Dignity Act of 2025: Bill Summary Rep. Maria Elvira Salazar (R-Florida) introduced the Dignity Act of 2025 (H.R. 4393) in the U.S. House of Representatives on July 15, 2025, a bipartisan effort to strengthen border security in the Uni...

The Dignity Act proposed by Rep. Salazar (R-FL) will look attractive to a lot of people, including some Dems, but it’s not a pathway to citizenship.

It would also require millions to voluntarily disclose their immigration status. I think we can all see why migrants may not want to do that.

"The Crime Is Being Trans": Montana House Passes Indecent Exposure Bill Applying Only To Trans People House Bill 446 in Montana establishes two indecent exposure laws: one for the general public that requires intent, and another for trans people that does not.

1. Montana’s House has passed an indecent exposure bill that applies only to trans people.

It sets out one standard for cis people that requires intent, and another for trans people that does not.

Trans Rep. Zephyr delivered scathing remarks.
