Gov. After being scrutinized over her plans to do so, Tina Kotek (D-OR ) announced she will no longer serve as the first lady in the Beaver State.
According to Oregon Public Broadcasting, Kotek’s plans to expand first female Aimee Kotek Wilson were discovered in messages released by the president’s company last week in accordance with a public records request. Numerous governor’s office assistants expressed concern about Kotek Wilson’s plans to have an office, which is alleged to have caused the departure of three of Kotek Wilson’s best aides earlier this year.
In a long speech issued on Wednesday, Kotek firmly said there would be no “office of the first family” created.
There wo n’t be an Office of the First Spouse, and I want to be clear about these things after listening to and reflecting on the concerns of Oregonians who have contacted my office and the staff’s advice. The First Spouse wo n’t have a Chief of Staff position, according to Kotek.
No state personnel did report to or be supervised by the First Lady, she added, aside from the team that is assigned to help her in her official duties.
Additionally, the government added that she will be “assembling a First Spouse Manual to spell out rules and standards for that part, as well as methods for responding to any team issues or concerns.”

Some of the questions raised by Kotek’s alleged plans to increase the initial lady’s position stemmed from a past controversy with an Oregon government, which led to his resignation.
Former Democratic Gov. After being accused of using their opportunities for personal gain, John Kitzhaber and then-first female Cylvia Hayes resigned in 2015. Kitzhaber denied any wrongdoing, but resigned and was afterwards not charged by the Justice Department.
