It isn’t normal for a president to repeatedly threaten the use of military force against American citizens. Treating the National Guard as a political pawn disrespects those who serve and undermines public trust in our military.

Oregonians showed up yesterday to send the powerful message to Trump that we are speaking up and pushing back. There's a long road ahead, but cracks are starting to form in their attack on America. Huge thanks to everyone who showed up to push the pendulum back to a better America.

Musk and DOGE are unilaterally making drastic, arbitrary, and cruel decisions about YOUR taxpayer dollars with NO transparency.

That has got to end. Elon Musk must come before Congress for a hearing and be held accountable to the American people.

In what could be a pivotal case as Trump seeks to reshape the federal workforce, the judge ruled that “an American President is not a king—not even an ‘elected’ one—and his power to remove federal officers and honest civil servants like the plaintiff is not absolute.”

Tomorrow, February 28, let’s disrupt the status quo by spending ONLY at businesses that uplift our communities.

That means:
🚫 No gas from corporate giants
🚫 No fast food chains
🚫 No big-box retailers (Target, Walmart, Amazon, etc.)

Budzinski: "We saw just yesterday another round of layoffs at the VA -- 1,400 more people. When we're trying to address veterans suicide rates, when you're cutting jobs for folks that are actually answering those suicide hotlines, how is that in the service of our veterans?"

I deeply appreciate all the friends & family who have reached out to check-in on me. It gives me strength & hope when I feel so beaten down and fearful as a federal employee. I will hold the line & will stay as long as I can at the VA. I love & cherish the work I get to do with Veterans.
