Trump & Musk's reckless decision to eliminate the office that provides services for seniors and Americans with disabilities risks their safety and ability to live independently. Committee Democrats won’t be silent. Starting today, Republicans have 14 legislative days to answer.

With all the fuss about David Hogg & his "Leaders We Deserve" PAC, I decided to take a look at LWD's FEC filings from the 2023-2024 cycle. I'm presenting this without making any judgement, as I'm neither a lawyer nor an accountant & have never run a PAC. 1/ www.fec.gov/data/disburs...

At the University of Portland, I saw students shaping the future–engineering next-gen wildfire tracking systems, advancing aeronautics, and training to become the medical professionals of tomorrow. Their passion, innovation, and dedication give me real hope for what’s ahead.

Trump's nominee to head up CBP was involved in an alleged cover-up and obstruction of investigations into the death of an immigrant in US custody. If true, no one can trust him to be in charge of millions of border searches every day.

Many people left comments on a recent clip I posted where the Education Secretary confused A.I. with A1. One commenter called the Secretary a “DEI hire” but as another person wrote, we should be really calling her and the rest of Trump’s Cabinet “nepo hires.”

During my listening session in #Tigard with small business owners, I heard firsthand how President Trump’s tariff policies are making it harder & more costly for them to operate. This means higher prices for consumers, which is not what Americans want. Read the full article ⬇️

Donald Trump is shutting down programs that help our kids succeed – and he doesn’t have the power to do it. I signed onto an amicus brief to not only protect the Department of Education, but to also protect our democracy.

Oregon needs to build >100,000 homes to meet the need & solve our housing crisis. We’re working to cut red tape to help us build more middle housing types (think duplexes & condos) that are more affordable & offer more choices for Oregonians #ORleg #ORpol oregoncapitalchronicle.com/2025/03/04/o...
