I signed three bipartisan bills to improve mental health and addiction care in Oregon. Everyone should have access to help when they need it, no matter where they live or what they can afford. We are expanding services and strengthening our health care workforce.

Oregon, much of our state is experiencing critical fire weather. Let's support our first responders by doing our part: stay alert, know the fire danger level where you are, and please follow all local restrictions. Learn more online: oregon.gov/odf/fire/pages…

Grateful this Labor Day for the Oregonians past and present who are the backbone of our nation's movement to improve working conditions for all. When our workers are strong, our country is strong.

As we celebrate Labor Day, we must also recognize the need to reform the Slavery Clause in our 13th Amendment, which allows for slavery “as a punishment for crime.” Slavery and forced labor should be illegal—no exceptions. That’s why Congresswoman Nikema Williams and I are fighting to close this

Big thanks to the Northwest Oregon Labor Council for having me at the Labor Day picnic! We are stronger together as we work towards our vision of what this state and country could be: a place where every worker has dignity & every community has opportunity. #LaborDay #orpol

When unions are strong, our country is strong. As a former UFCW union member, I know how much difference a union can make in working people’s lives. I was honored to celebrate Labor Day AND the NW Oregon Labor Council’s 125th birthday with union workers and their families today.

Welcome to the Democratic Party, Rep. Javadi!

Posing for a photo with today's newspaper to prove you're not dead so you can get your hard-earned pension is exactly the kind of bureaucratic red tape I've been battling since my Gray Panther days. Glad to help get this sorted but these roadblocks are all too common for seniors.

Access to safe and reliable transportation and routes = FREEDOM. That’s why I spoke with Oregon transit representatives to discuss ongoing needs in our district and ways I will continue to fight to bring funding home for projects in CD5.

Oregon is setting an example for how to start building resiliency to large earthquakes. Thank you Governor Kotek! koin.com/news/oregon/ah…

The students at Utah Valley University were there to engage civically. The students at Evergreen High School were trying to eat lunch. Our hearts go out to all affected by the devastating - and preventable - gun violence in this country. We must do better. #EndGunViolence

Today, we remember those who lost their lives on September 11, 2001, and the families who grieve for them still. We honor the courage and selflessness of the first responders that day. May we strive for the kindness and strength shown worldwide in the face of that tragedy.

Happy Hispanic Heritage Month, Oregon! See a statewide list of events where you can join in the recognition and celebration of the Latino community at DPO.org/HHM. We'll be updating this list throughout the month!

We have so much on the line now and in 2026. Whatever reason you have to get out and vote next year, it's important we all do our part to make sure our families, friends and neighbors vote! Go to DPO.org/Register to update your voter registration and share with others.

Last night, Trump’s DOJ filed lawsuits against Maine and Oregon - and their Secretaries of State, Tobias Read and @ShennaBellows - for refusing to blindly hand over voters’ sensitive, private data without any legal or constitutional basis. We refuse to back down.

This is how we slide into an authoritarian strongman state: using a government agency to stifle freedom of speech and voices of dissent. To believe in freedom of speech is to support that free speech, even if you disagree dramatically with the point of view being expressed.

🚨 BREAKING: The new West Coast Health Alliance just made COVID & Flu vaccines available without a prescription. With RFK Jr.'s anti-vax CDC and a failed presidential admin, states must lead. The importance of re-electing @tina4oregon cannot be understated.#vaccinessavelives
