Portland, Oregón – Oregon’s Senator Jeff Merkley made the following statement after Governor Kate Brown announced her appointment of Jeanne Atkins to be Oregon’s next Secretary of State:
“Governor Brown couldn’t have picked a more dedicated and experienced public servant to become our next Secretary of State. Jeanne Atkins is a true Oregon gem and supremely qualified.
