In a study of 30 of Oregon’s most iconic waterways, microplastics were found in 100% of the samples! Yet there hasn’t been a single investigation done by the FDA to see what microplastics do to our health – that needs to change. My Microplastics Safety Act will get us the data

"The Congressional Budget Office predicts that the package's costs will far outweigh its savings." Thanks to President Trump and Republicans, 10 million people are in danger of losing their healthcare, AND our national debt is going to skyrocket. What a COLOSSAL failure.

Over the weekend, the Cram fire in Central Oregon became the largest wildfire of the year so far in the US. I am grateful to the firefighters and local authorities who bravely responded – we need to continue to make sure they have all the resources they need to protect our

Access to Medicaid and SNAP are a lifeline for thousands of Oregonians, but Republicans’ trash budget has left our communities preparing to have these programs ripped away. All to line the pockets of billionaires. It’s unacceptable. kgw.com/article/news/l…

Modular and off-site construction can be a creative solution to the affordable housing crisis, but Department of Housing and Urban Development doesn’t always permit it to happen. I’m asking why ā¬‡ļø

Speaker Johnson is shutting down the House and sending us home early to avoid releasing the Epstein files. We need transparency. Quit wasting my time.

In Oregon, 90,000 people are at risk of losing their access to SNAP. That’s 90,000 people – veterans, children, seniors – who are just trying to make ends meet and put food on the table. But Republicans sold them out to give tax cuts to the rich.

We were supposed to be in DC voting today, but instead, Speaker Johnson sent us home early. Why? To avoid releasing the Epstein files. There’s nothing defensible about that.

When I go to the grocery store to shop for my family, I am shocked by the prices I’m seeing. So trust me, I hear you: prices are too damn high!Ā  That’s why I introduced the Protecting Families From Inflation Act – Speaker Johnson, it’s time to put up a vote to lower costs.

Following funding cuts, NeighborImpact has seen a 27.3% decrease in food coming from Oregon Food Bank. Thanks to Republicans' trash budget, demand is going to go up while supply continues to go down.Ā  bendbulletin.com/2025/07/21/as-…

The more we learn about the conditions at ā€˜Alligator Alcatraz,’ the more disgusted I am.Ā  This is an extreme violation of human rights – putting people in cages, depriving them of food, and exposing them to dangerous weather.Ā  That’s why I demanded ICE and DHS shut it down.
