Airlines rake in billions in profits each year — but their profits wouldn't be possible without the critical work that flight attendants do. I stand with the thousands of flight attendants on the picket line today fighting for a fair contract.

Okay why are we mentioning gender at all, can we just stick to "Representative from ________" 🤷‍♀️ #ImpeachmentDay

[Emma Deppa @emmadeppa]

Why has every woman been referred to as a "young lady" when being introduced to speak? 🤔 #ImpeachmentDay

[Emma Deppa @emmadeppa]

And the men are introduced as "distinguished gentlemen" 🤔🤔🤔 #ImpeachmentDay

Dem. Rep. Karen Bass: "The urgency to move forward with articles of impeachment is because there is no reason to believe Pres. Trump won't continue to abuse the power of his office...In fact, his attorney just returned from Ukraine." https://t.co/KV8jBJCHcL

Super excited to be at the @oregonhousedems Emerging Leaders Day! Thank you Rep @alissakg for the nomination, it’s an honor to represent South Tabor 🌲

[Housing Policy is Climate Policy @MadelineKovacs]

I so appreciate the approach that @TinaKotek and @alissakg have taken this whole session:
- legalize less expensive homes
- design programs to protect vulnerable residents
- fund programs with more equitable tax structures

Fingers crossed!!

Another article about the impact of our tenant protection bill on the national debate about rent control. While our bill did not go as far as I would have liked (as tenants continue to remind us), it is still a huge step forward. https://t.co/Ey812OGsif

Thank you @RepBSW for taking the time to meet with us today, and for supporting progressive labor legislation!

“But lead powder, whether used by Elizabeth (in myth or truth)...was an expensive product that slowly sapped women’s strength, even as it promised an extension of their meager power. In that, it’s painfully familiar.”

Actually, Portland has a whole team of women! They’re the Thorns and they beat your city’s team twice in a row (though judging by your comment, you probably don’t follow them).
