A Windfall Profits Tax would show Big Oil that their profiteering and price gouging will not go unchecked. They’re raking in HUGE profits while gouging us at the gas pump. I’m working to hold them accountable.
Great to have rock-solid allies standing up with me today in Portland in the vital battle against a Trump-appointed judge poised to ban access to abortion medication nationwide. We won’t back down from this important fight for reproductive freedom @ohsunews, @PPCW & @ORDOJ.
Yesterday, I met with local leaders from @cityofeugene, @spfldoregon, @SpringfieldPS, @LaneCountyGov, @LaneTransit, and @Willamalane to discuss our local, state and federal partnership on issues of importance in the 4th District’s urban & rural communities.
I’m proud to join @rosadelauro and co-sponsor the Paycheck Fairness Act. Almost six decades after the passage of the 1963 Equal Pay Act, women are still making cents compared to every dollar earned by men. In #OR04, there is an 18% pay gap between men & women working full-time.
Testified at the House Education Committee this afternoon about improving early literacy across Oregon.
Our work must be student-centered, with consistent, high-quality instruction across the state.
To get there, we need to act this session.
As the midterms quickly approach I’m revisiting my podcast about the rise of autocracy around the world. We must decide if we are the heroes of democracy, or the victims of its demise.

We can make this one different but we need to keep the pressure on for the next several weeks and months leading up to the election. We need a movement of Americans from all walks of life not waiting to be told what to do but just acting to put pressure on Mitch.
If you’re a teacher like my mom, stay tuned in the next couple of days I’ll have a really great way for you to take action it’s just gonna take a minute to get this stuff together.
We are all so traumatized by the horrors of the #BuffaloShooting & #Uvalde - why do we still hear so much political rhetoric designed to make us fear “others" and stoke our anger instead of pushing for change? Enough! Look at the cost! #TruthBrigade
In the last 24 hours, Republicans have voted *against* funding to fix the baby formula shortage, *against* investigating white supremacist domestic terrorism, and *against* making it illegal for gas companies to price gouge American consumers.
High gas prices make life harder for all of us, while gas companies are making record profits. So why would politicians wrongly blame #cleanenergy policies for #Putin price hikes? When we end reliance on gas, we solve gas price swings! #TruthBrigade
🚨Save the date!🚨
