AI Summary
This concurrent resolution honors the life and legacy of Christine Chin Ryan, a Chinese American immigrant, entrepreneur, and community leader from Oregon. Born in Trinidad and Tobago to immigrant parents, Ryan moved to the United States in 1966 under the Immigration and Nationality Act and later settled in Oregon in the late 1970s. She founded Synergy Consulting, Inc. in Portland in 1988, which received a Small Business Administration award, and co-founded the Asian Pacific Islander Community Coalition of Oregon (APICCO), empowering youth leaders and promoting political advocacy. Ryan was a trailblazing activist who served on the National Organization for Women (NOW) National Board of Directors, becoming the first Chinese American and second Asian Pacific Islander to do so, and was also the first woman of color to lead Oregon's NOW chapter. Throughout her life, she was dedicated to supporting small businesses, women's rights, racial justice, and anti-hate initiatives, serving on various community boards and speaking out against anti-Asian hate crimes. The resolution celebrates her significant contributions to democracy and community service, recognizing her as a mentor, activist, and leader who inspired generations and passed away on March 30, 2025, leaving an immeasurable impact on Oregon and beyond.
