There is no mistaking where Oregonians stand: we do not want federal troops on our streets. Oregon is our home, not a war zone or a military target, and our communities remain vibrant and secure.

I'm heartbroken for their family today. And for our democracy, that this dark place is where years of inflammatory rhetoric & political divisiveness have led us. And for all of us who do this work to try to make our communities and our states a little better, especially in this moment in our history

Live Updates: Minnesota Lawmaker Is Assassinated in Act of β€˜Targeted Political Violence’

I am just horrified to wake up to the news of the assassination of Melissa Hortman & her husband Mark. Melissa was the longtime Speaker / Dem. caucus leader in the Minnesota House, and she served on the Democratic Legislative Campaign Committee board with me (1/2)

In 100 days, Trump's policies have significantly harmed Oregonians. The consequences of these actions are severe and widespread. House Democrats are doing everything we can to fight back. It's time to hold this administration accountable and demand a future that uplifts all Americans. #Trump100Days

(2/2) Oregonians should know that the legislature is working to protect their basic rights and freedoms, and that when the Trump administration oversteps their legal authority, AG Dan Rayfield will be there to hold them accountable. I hope you can join us!

While Congress debates cuts to Medicaid, Oregon is standing strong to protect the Oregon Health Plan (OHP). Our state has led the way in making Medicaid work efficiently, ensuring healthcare access for 1.4 million people.

Opinion | Don’t Believe Him Look closely at the first two weeks of Donald Trump’s second term and you’ll see something very different than what he wants you to see.

A great read by @ezrakleinbot.bsky.social. Trump is using chaos in place of leadership β€” he is "acting like a king because he is too weak to govern like a president." Don't believe him.
