Labor Commissioner Avakian statement on death of Hardy Myers

Portland, OR-Labor Commissioner Brad Avakian today issued the following statement in response to the death of Hardy Myers:

Today, we lost a public servant who dedicated his career to his fellow Oregonians. Hardy Myers improved the lives of hundreds of thousands of Oregonians as Speaker of the House and Attorney General. From strengthening domestic violence laws, defending our Death with Dignity law, securing Oregon's tobacco settlement and protecting consumers, Myers changed our state for the better.

Myers was a statesman who will be deeply missed. My thoughts and condolences go out to his family and loved ones.
