“Judge Brown has proven she has the courage and good judgment to protect the rights of individuals in these challenging times. She stands for what is fair and just. That is exactly what Oregonians should demand from a judge.”
— Barbara Roberts, Former Governor of Oregon
“Adrian created the Civil Rights Coordinator position at the U.S. Attorney’s Office. She continues to walk her talk as a judge.”

“I have known Judge Brown for over a decade. I have seen her serve with compassion and courage protecting the rights of all individuals. As an immigrant, our country’s promise of an independent judiciary is important to me — reelecting Judge Brown is how we make our voices heard on that promise.”
— Josefina Salma Ahmad, President, Islamic Society of Greater Portland
“Judge Brown is a warrior for Oregonians with disabilities and underrepresented community members. All individuals in her courtroom benefit from a judge who is both a veteran and someone who lives with a disability.”
