Who We Are

Who We Are 2018-12-04T04:25:32+00:00

Oregon is Our Home
Oregon is home to thousands of immigrants and refugees, and our families who’ve been here for generations because a family member courageously immigrated to the state. Today, immigrants are critical to the state’s cultural and economic vitality. We are your neighbors, your friends and your colleagues. Oregon is our home.

Dignity and Respect are Core Oregon Values
We chose Oregon because it is a special place where its people believe in constitutional and human rights. We must protect those rights for everyone who calls Oregon home. All Oregonians should be treated with dignity and respect regardless of where they were born.

Tragically, Oregon’s values are being threatened by local and national white nationalist groups that continue to push racist, anti-immigrant and anti-Muslim policies which are tearing apart our families and Oregon communities. We are fighting for our way of life.  This is a watershed moment in defining who we are as a state; it’s time to stand up for the compassion and values that make Oregon a place we are proud to live.

One Oregon is a statewide coalition that defends against anti-immigrant and anti-Muslim policies and ballot measures and works to ensure that all Oregonians, regardless of country of birth, are treated with dignity and respect. One Oregon one-pager
