April reminder- please follow my team and I over at Representative Dacia Grayber through session. This account is unmonitored during session. Thank you.

Reminder to follow the account over at Representative Dacia Grayber during session (January- June). This one will be mostly inactive until Sine Die, likely late June.

Can confirm, having finally made it home from Salem w/ ppl driving way too fast for conditions on many roads, and even more important as any melt re-freezes tonight. If you have to ask, “will my car make it up this?,” discretion is the better part of valor. 😉

Six emergency shelters will open Thursday evening in Portland as the winter storm continues. Officials are asking members of the public who live near the shelters to volunteer. portlandmercury.com/news/2023/02/2…

It’s a small thing, but I love so much coming home to this face in the window. Even if she is on the kitchen nook bench where she’s totally not supposed to be. Even if she did eat the bagel I was saving for tomorrow off the counter.

Volleyball tourney day at Oregon State University ! I GO BEAVS!!! 🧡

This is an excellent resource for all questions legislative… how to find your legislator and contact them, follow bills, testify, access the Capitol while under construction, and more!

This is horrific. Firefighting itself is starting to be recognized as a carcinogen. Ridiculous that in this day and age we have to fight for cancer prevention and care… but we will. About time we got #PFAS out of our gear, for starters…

It’s go time!

Thank you Tualatin Riverkeepers and City of Tigard for hosting this event.

Today the PDX leg. delegation gathered for bkfst w/ the Portland City Council & had good, tough, frank conversations about our collective future. It’s a new year, & a new era in collaboration to get things done & move forward. It won’t be overnight or easy, but we’re here.

I have lots of great co-workers in the #orleg but no one makes me as happy to see him every time as this guy! Artie does dual duty- explosives detection AND bringing joy. Oregon State Police
