Where was Christine Drazan when every other Senator was voting to cut costs for cervical cancer screening? Apparently she was giving the people of Oregon her “absolute best” by schmoozing at a bar.

The one and only Senator to skip this historic vote? Christine Drazan.

How many votes will Christine Drazan miss this session? She couldn't be bothered to vote on making Oregon the FIRST STATE IN THE NATION to cover cervical cancer screenings. But a business roundtable at a pub in someone else’s district? She cleared her schedule. Priorities.

ChristineDrazan promised to 'do more than everyone else' for her district. Apparently that means skipping a vote to make cervical cancer screenings free. But hey, at least she made it to the pub in time for lunch! 🍺 #orleg oregoncapitalchronicle.com/briefs/orego...

Republicans in Congress are preparing to disenfranchise 69 million women who have changed their last names after marriage and 150 million Americans who don't have a passport. Our Dem Congress members are fighting this voter suppression. Republican Cliff Bentz should do the same.

Conspiracy theories and rightwing extremism clearly have a safe home in the Oregon GOP. Oregon Republican, January 6er and right-wing conspiracy theorist David Medina just filed to run for Governor. Stay tuned!

1 in 6 Oregonians participate in SNAP to keep food on the table, including:

272,000 children
95,700 seniors
33,000 veterans

Trump's refusal to release $6 billion in reserve funding to ease the suffering of millions of Americans is not only cruel - it's illegal.

Christine Drazan’s announcement makes one thing clear: Donald Trump is officially on the Oregon ballot. Voters already rejected Christine Drazan's extremist agenda once.

Meet Christine Drazan. She backed Trump’s plan to deploy the National Guard on our streets, voted against Medicaid expansion in OR, supported an abortion ban, and opposed vote-by-mail. Oregonians deserve a governor who defends our state, not one who takes orders from Mar-a-Lago.

Oregon congressional candidate Alek Skarlatos joked about choking women • Oregon Capital Chronicle Republican Alek Skarlatos joked about strangling women on a podcast shortly before beginning his political career four years ago.

In 2022, Alek Skarlatos got caught chasing underage girls on Instagram and joking about choking women. Oregon House Republicans stayed on-brand last week and elected him to be one of the leaders of their caucus:

Republicans nationally have all the power they could ever want, and they're using it to defund Medicaid, shut down the government, destroy the environment, and send troops to American cities. This is the Republican pipe dream realized. We have to win in 2026.

Today, I was in downtown Portland walking peacefully with Oregonians to say that we don’t need military intervention here.
We are peaceful.
We are united.
We are Oregon.
