I just filed for re-election. There is no time to waste. The people of Oregon’s Third District deserve a representative who doesn’t just listen to their concerns—but turns concerns into action. I’m grateful that every single day, I get to wake up and do just that.

Federal immigration agents are unhinged and are operating without consequences and have murdered two citizens in cold blood. The administration is lying and covering up the truth. This is not making our communities safer, they are traumatizing and trying to control us.

On MLK Day, I’m reflecting on Dr. King’s vision of a world where every person lives with dignity and purpose. I was honored to join the Urban League of Portland to celebrate 80 years of advancing that vision, and I am proud to be their partner in this work.

Impeach Kristi Noem. Defund ICE. Those are critical instructions I take back to DC after a weekend in community—mourning the harm inflicted on our home by lawless federal agents. My resolve to fight for OR-03 has never been stronger. We take care of us.

From working to tackle Oregon’s housing crisis to standing firm against the Trump regime’s barrage of cruelty, Governor Kotek has led with courage and conviction. I’m proud to endorse her as she continues fighting for Oregon’s families.
As your Governor, I’ve never been prouder to work for you - and with you. But the fight isn’t over. I’m running for reelection because Oregon values are on the line.

Heck yeah! Jeff Merkley is running for re-election, and Oregon couldn’t ask for a stronger voice in the Senate. He’s fearless in the fight for working people and unafraid to take on the powerful. I’m proud to stand with him and damn excited to see him back on the ballot.
We're in a critical moment for our rights, our democracy, and a future where every American can thrive. I've been thinking about how I can best keep fighting with you for a country that's fair, free, and built for all of us. Watch below to find out!

Republicans are launching an all-out attack on Medicaid, risking millions of lives. As 1 of just 6 Democratic doctors in Congress, I’m fighting back. But I need you. My friend @aoc.bsky.social made it easy to call your Reps and speak up before they slash this lifeline.

Today, Portland sent a clear message:
We won’t let Trump, Musk, and their enablers drag us into authoritarianism — or sell out our future to oligarchs.
I’m proud to stand in this fight — in the streets and in Congress — to defend our democracy and put working people first.
We are not backing down

If only we had someone, a Chief Justice so to speak, who was in precisely the position to stand up for an independent judiciary by publicly refusing the request on behalf of all judicial branch employees.
Oh well!
Oh well!
With Elon’s “tell us what you accomplished last week or you’re fired” emails: I can confirm that he didn’t limit himself to the executive branch. He sent them to employees of the judicial branch as well.
