The assault on Senator Padilla is an assault on democracy. Democrats marched to Republican leadership’s offices to challenge Trump’s attack on congressional oversight. It is now or never: Republicans must stand up for the voices of every single member of Congress and the people

ICE is literally hunting immigrants to hit quotas. Make no mistake—this doesn't make any single person safer. Trump wants to incite fear. The callous cruelty is the point. nytimes.com/2025/06/11/us/…

I am horrified by the assassination of State Rep. Hortman and her husband, and the shooting of State Sen. Hoffman and his wife. Political violence is an attack on our democracy itself. It cannot become part of our culture or our politics. We must stand united in rejecting it.

Last week, I secured a commitment from Secretary Burgum for a formal briefing on Crater Lake. Crater Lake is facing a staffing crisis created by the Trump administration. I’m using every tool at my disposal to ensure Oregonians receive answers. We must protect our treasured

No matter what Donald Trump says, he cannot change the fact that your right to emergency abortion care is protected under law. I will not stand by while chaos is used as a weapon to strip people of their rights.

Pride is a protest. It always has been. As anti-LGBTQIA+ attacks rise across the country, know this: I see you, I stand with you, and I won’t stop fighting for a future where everyone can thrive—loudly, proudly, and without fear.

A nuclear armed Iran poses a grave threat to the security of our world. For the sake of peace and stability in the region, we must remain committed to a diplomatic solution. The U.S. cannot be dragged into another endless war.

This ruling is devastating for trans youth & their families. As a mom & physician, I know medical decisions must be made by families & medical professionals—not politicians or judges. I will fight for every person to have access to the care they need.bit.ly/3HO1Sui

On June 19, 1865, news of the Emancipation Proclamation reached the last enslaved people in Galveston, Texas. Today, we celebrate Juneteenth to recommit ourselves to advancing justice and equity for Black Americans.

Our public lands are where we go to recreate and to connect with people and nature. Republicans are trying to sell them to the lowest bidder. I’ll fight like hell to keep our public lands in your hands—these are treasured and must be protected. wilderness.org/articles/media…

I heard it directly from healthcare leaders in my district: Republicans’ brutal budget bill will lead to closures of hospitals and less access to life-saving care. More Oregonians will die preventable deaths if this bill passes, and I will fight like hell to keep that from
