In last night's #ORGovDebate, @KnuteBuehler falsely suggested that we oppose Oregon’s landmark #CleanFuels Program. This is a wholly off the mark. Here's our statement in response: (a thread)
1. The Sierra Club strongly supports Oregon’s #CleanFuels Program, which has reduced carbon dioxide pollution by 1.7 million metric tons over the last two years, at little or no cost to consumers.
2. At the same time, the Sierra Club is looking to make sure that biofuels meet higher and higher environmental standards and is seeking to curb federal support for biofuels that offer no improvement over oil and gas.
Friend received an aggressive push poll call today in support of Selma Pierce, running for OR House against @PaulEvansOregon. It identified Pierce as an independent (untrue) & asked which of 3 statements about Evans (all of them untrue) would make them less likely to vote 4 him. 
When asked, the caller would not identify who had paid for the poll. I assume Pierce chose to be falsely identified as an independent because our district is fairly purple and it's a tough time to be a Republican. Seems duplicitous, if not strictly illegal. #orpol
The previous day I had received another @gop-friendly push poll call in support of @KnuteBuehler which also pushed the conservative line on several ballot measures. I have not received and do not know anyone who has received Democratic-leaning push poll calls in Oregon.
#FactCheckFriday comes a day early this week! With Knute Buehler's campaign out with another ad that crams five blatantly false or misleading statements into a 30-second video, we couldn't wait another day to fact check. Here’s our breakdown of the ad: (thread) #orpol
JEN KEESEY: "As a lifelong Democrat, I care about the right to choose, and I know Knute Buehler does too."
FALSE: Buehler says one thing to court pro-choice voters, but he has an altogether different narrative when he is trying to win over other voters. #FactCheckFriday #orpol

For instance, on conservative talk radio Buehler said, "I have a record in the legislature of voting against Governor Brown’s efforts to expand access to abortion," and "I’m not for public funds going to fund abortion." drive.google.com/file/d/1tKL7n_…
