My wife is a nurse, so I know how hard nurses work every day. They put in long hours to give our loved ones the best care possible. Many nurses are forced to work mandatory overtime, which adds stress and makes it harder to provide high-quality care.
Big Oil loves to tout “cleaner” natural gas as a climate solution, but what they’re really doing is greenwashing the damage methane does to our planet. Methane has 80 times the warming power of carbon dioxide and causes 25% of global warming.
Did you know that for over 20 years the @oregonzoo has been key to bringing the California condor back from the brink of extinction? @WydenForOregon and I recently secured funding to help keep their condor recovery program flying high.
House Republicans, backed by dirty energy, voted to strike the requirement that LNG exports be in the public interest. This Big Oil payday puts corporate polluters above public health and energy security.
We will stop this boondoggle for the fossil fuel industry in the Senate.
Some states are red.
Some states are blue.
There’s a few that are purple, too.
Vote By Mail works in states of any hue.
So, let’s make Vote By Mail the law across the land --
And you'll always be able to have your ballot in hand!
When you vote this year, remember what happened in Parkland. Newtown. Orlando. Las Vegas. Uvalde. Pittsburgh. El Paso. Miami. Buffalo. Highland Park. Santa Fe. Monterey Park. Baton Rouge. Nashville. Louisville. Lewiston. Kansas City.
Your town could be next.
Our elections should be decided by the voices of the people, not anonymous dark money. We must pass the DISCLOSE Act to shine a light on who is trying to buy our elections – and why.
Join me tonight at 7pm for @KGWStraightTalk with @GovTinaKotek. Hear her plan to fix the affordable housing crisis in Oregon. And her thoughts on what it will take for her to sign a bill re-criminalizing drug possession under M.110? And what about more $ for schools?

I simply can’t believe this, but there is yet another shooting happening right now. This time, at Benjamin E. Mays High School in Georgia. 4 students are shot.
This is the 3rd mass shooting of the day. This is going to keep happening until lawmakers step up and take action.
Over 800 officers at the Kansas City parade could not stop 2 individuals from shooting people. The state of Missouri has extremely weak gun laws. Lawmakers are currently failing us and they must take action immediately to prevent future tragedies.
In case you missed this yesterday, I discovered that data brokers are helping anti-abortion extremists exploit location data to target patients. The prospect of how red-state prosecutors could abuse this information should terrify every single American with a smartphone.
Since 2020, election workers have faced escalating abuse and harassment from MAGA election deniers and partisan actors who want to undermine our democracy.
Thank you @BarackObama and @JoeBiden for making the Affordable Care Act a reality.
Now millions have health care.
Let's make sure we protect it by registering and voting for Democrats up & down ballot this November!

Ohio just banned life-saving, gender-affirming care for trans youth and restricted their participation in school sports. Hateful, discriminatory laws like these that target people with the courage to live as their authentic selves are why I’m fighting to pass the Equality Act.
