"When will it be over?"
"Once they release the files…"
"He'll resign, or die, or something…"
I don't think there are any quick fixes ahead of us.

Victory makes the coffee taste delicious. Here’s to more victories. How about you? Have you thought about stepping forward and running for office? Curious about being a part of the next #bluewave?

Madras Oregon. 120 souls show up for #nokings. This is the same corner we have held for rallies all year. Lots of honks from the truckers coming through. The Indian community showed up hardcore. Bells on and songs to heaven.

We have not seen or heard anything from Bentz since the shutdown. I guess if he doesn't have our healthcare or food security to vote against, he does not have much to get out of bed (in an overpriced hotel) for.
Such a disappointment.

Cliff claims he just wants "those who don't need it" to be off of Medicaid. Did you know that Medicaid is the Oregon Health Plan? That's the health care of 30% of Bentz's constituents!

This is what Democrats are working for; Your health care costs. The Republicans (Our friend Cliff Bentz) shut down the US Government, stopping pay for 2 million workers, to allow your healthcare prices to skyrocket.
Call Cliff. Tell him to vote for the subsidies and a functioning government!

Need the energy to keep going on the work? I spend time with Ariella Elm's content for that.

The Republican "reasons" for closing down the government are lies. Please do what you can to learn and promote the truth.

Imagine a leader would rather shut down the government than keep healthcare costs from skyrocketing. Well, there's a few hundred of them on the Republican side in DC. Call your representative and let them know what you think. https://www.house.gov/representatives/find-your-representative

Republicans are blocking an elected Representative from getting her right to vote to keep the Epstein files from coming out. That's it. That's the story. What do you think about that?

Refusing the normal practice of Democracy to protect the very guilty-looking Trump from revelations of what he did with Epstein? Seat the elected representative and let's see what's in those files.

Our rep, Cliff Bentz, is voting against his constituents and for billionaires. We find it…frustrating.

Who is buying what the Rs are selling? The Republicans are stopping the pay to soldiers and refusing to negotiate. The Democrats want to keep the price of healthcare from rising. The Democrats are willing to meet. The Republicans locked the door of the chamber.

Cliff Bentz's recent email about why he won't do town halls claimed it was because of @indivisible.org being a "threatening" organization. You know, looking at Indivisible's website, their commitment to non-violence really jumps out https://indivisible.org/commitment-nonviolence

The DPO’s Executive Director, Candy Emmons, said Rep. Bentz should spend federal dollars allocated to his office on things that benefit Oregonians — like holding town halls with his constituents during the August recess — rather than lavish trips for himself and his staff.
