FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Portland, OR - "The Democratic Party of Oregon extends a warm welcome to Representative Javadi, who has been a steadfast advocate for the North Coast communities he serves," said DPO Chair Nathan Soltz. "As Democrats, we're proud to stand with those who will protect Medicaid, support rural hospitals, work to improve roads and bridges, and safeguard the rights of all Oregonians."
Rep. Javadi's decision demonstrates that Democrats are serious about delivering real solutions for Oregonians. His record shows a clear commitment to doing what's right for his constituents. While Republicans focus on stoking division with hateful rhetoric, Democrats believe in pursuing the best policies that improve Oregonians' lives.
"We're a big tent party. Unlike Trump's GOP, we believe in healthy debate and an honest exchange of ideas," Soltz added. "Democrats believe that we're stronger when we all work together to get good things done for people."
Republican Leader Christine Drazan's caucus is in clear disarray as they vote to let rural hospitals shut down, attack vote-by-mail, try to ban books, and oppose road and bridge improvements while endangering jobs.
"We're glad to work with Rep. Javadi on the issues that matter most to Oregonians. We welcome him to the Democratic Party and look forward to supporting him for re-election in 2026," Soltz said.
