It is unconscionable that we have a president who wants to penalize states for feeding people who are hungry - and that's why we'll continue to fight like hell for Oregonians.

Our organized crime unit works around the clock to keep communities across Oregon safe from drug trafficking, retail theft, and much more.
It’s always a pleasure to welcome new criminal justice investigators to the Oregon DOJ to work for Oregonians!

Oregon will not let the president threaten and attack hungry families – and we are going to fight like hell to keep SNAP benefits where they belong.

This morning, the president ordered states to not distribute full SNAP benefits for November, and demanded that states “undo” any benefits payments that have already been sent to working families for food.

No president in the history of this country has ever tried to leverage food assistance in this political way.
The fact that we have to go to court to try to get people fed… it’s incredibly disheartening.
But we’ll continue to fight for Oregonians & basic human decency every day.

We just got a huge win for Oregonians - and a check on the president's power: we received a ruling preventing the president from deploying the National Guard on the streets of our cities.
No one - not even the president - is above the law.

I caught up with Attorney General Dan Rayfield in DC after his team argued against Trump’s illegal tariffs at the Supreme Court. He breaks down what’s at stake in the case and where we go from here.

LAWSUIT UPDATE: TRANSPORTATION FUNDING: We've protected over $700 million in transportation funding in Oregon.
Oregonians depend on safe roads and reliable transit to get to work, school, and home. By protecting this funding, we're keeping our roads safe and our economy moving.

Hunger must not be used as a political weapon. Today, families across Oregon are finally receiving full November SNAP benefits – a win for both the rule of law and basic human decency.

The president is disconnected from real facts and real people.
Costs are going up and working families are struggling - and meanwhile, the president is yanking benefits and passing regressive taxes: tariffs.

The case at hand is Measure 114, a gun control measure approved by Oregon voters in 2022.

We have an affordability crisis in this country. Trump’s illegal tariffs are impacting working families and small businesses across Oregon — and that’s why we filed a lawsuit to stop them.

LAWSUIT UPDATE: SNAP BENEFITS: We've taken action to compel the Trump administration to deliver full SNAP benefits. We argue the government has created chaos & delay with the roll-out of partial benefits, has the money to fully fund the program, and is legally required to do so.

There are constitutional ways for the president to set tariffs - with safeguards, set by Congress. Trump even used them in his first term.
This time, though, he chose to abuse an emergency power to set illegal tariffs.

Oregon AG calls Trump’s tariffs a “hidden tax on all of us”: The Supreme Court appears skeptical of Trump’s use of emergency powers to impose sweeping tariffs. @agdanrayfield.bsky.social, who led a 12-state coalition challenging the move, joins The Weeknight to explain what’s at stake for Americans.

Today in the Supreme Court, the president’s own lawyers said that the American people will pay 30-80% of the $4 trillion in tariffs.
Meanwhile, we’re experiencing an affordability crisis: rising costs of groceries, cuts to food benefits, and more.
This is a betrayal of trust.
