The Weekly Way (HBD Oregon)
Here's to a better year ahead for a state that's seen more than its far share of tough times.
Welcome to the first version of The Weekly Way. Rather than an email a day, we’re moving to an email a week; don’t worry, we will still have daily content on our social media as well as posted on the site!
As a reminder, this blog aims to share nonpartisan perspectives from around the state; if you think we’re missing a voice, please let me know!
Finally, happy birthday, Oregon!
