@clairewillett Thank you so much! My team and I enjoyed these and there were some left overs that I shared with my friends, including @AyannaPressley

[Governor Kate Brown @OregonGovBrown]

No one deserves to be saddled with the impacts of a simple possession of marijuana conviction—a crime that is no longer on the books in Oregon. I am pardoning these prior Oregon offenses, an act that will impact an estimated 45,000 individuals. https://t.co/mT9bcYzCcV

BREAKING: For someone who wants to lead all of Oregon @christinedrazan fails the test miserably by saying that people from the state’s two largest metro areas aren’t “Oregonians". Wrong person with the wrong message at the wrong time! Vote @tinakotek

This is a vital step forward for ending the failed war on drugs that too often targeted people of color, especially Black and Latino men. While this announcement is welcome and long overdue, it is the first step of many that this Administration should take.

[President Biden Archived @POTUS46Archive]

As I’ve said before, no one should be in jail just for using or possessing marijuana.

Today, I’m taking steps to end our failed approach. Allow me to lay them out.

After waiting for months, my clean energy provisions have finally passed the Senate and are headed back to the House. While not exactly what we planned, it’s the largest investment in clean energy ever!

I am eager to vote to vote for it and send it to @POTUS to sign into law.

Today the Ways & Means Committee heard powerful testimony from women on how they struggle without paid leave & affordable childcare. We cannot have a strong economy without supporting our families. Our community knew this when we enacted universal preschool; now Congress must act

[Earl Blumenauer @repblumenauer]

Thank you @ORDems voters for choosing me as your 3rd CD Democratic nominee for another term. I’m working hard between now and the general election to make our progressive voices heard and hold the House & Senate. It'll take all of us. Let's do this together!

[Earl Blumenauer @repblumenauer]

There’s just a few hours to get your ballot in. Sign the back & take it to any county elections office in OR or Official Ballot Drop Site location by 8 p.m. EVERY VOTE COUNTS! #vote #orpol

[Earl Blumenauer @repblumenauer]

RESTAURANT AID: @SenatorWicker believes he can corral 10 GOP votes to pass @RepDeanPhillips @repblumenauer relief bill when it comes to vote next week

[Earl Blumenauer @repblumenauer]

Today the Senate has the chance to codify Roe into law by passing the Women's Health Protection Act.
The American people will see where every Senator stands on personal freedom & the right to privacy. If they can't get it done, we know what needs to happen: abolish the filibuster

Brain donations provide a rare opportunity to physically study the human brain & unlike other forms of organ donation, are only used for research purposes.
I’m working w/ @RepBrianFitz to designate today as Brain Donation Awareness Day. Visit https://t.co/Bv1kXyD7fI to learn more

[Earl Blumenauer @repblumenauer]

Today I met w/ @secbecerra & Planned Parenthood local leaders preparing for the fallout due to denial of services for desperate people. @PPCW is determined to be there. #RoeVWade

Happening Now: Youth Mental Health 988 Roundtable with Secretary Becerra in Portland, Oregon

[Earl Blumenauer @repblumenauer]

I’m welcoming @secbecerra to Portland to talk about the mental health crisis in America for youth & adults. Livestream our roundtable @HHSgov @Lines_for_Life. Let’s take action on mental health. I’ll keep working to make the federal government a stronger partner in this fight.

[Earl Blumenauer @repblumenauer]

@mly_vwg Yep

[Earl Blumenauer @repblumenauer]

In case people didn’t know that elections have consequences. We will fight this state by state and at the national level. Shameful (draft) decision by those who say they support freedom and liberty #Roe https://t.co/fKmrdBLDkU

[Earl Blumenauer @repblumenauer]

@mly_vwg I believe this is the vote they took that would have ended the filibuster to allow them to vote on House bill (which needed 60 votes to pass) https://t.co/We5Bg0JSAD
