Donald Trump is trying to gut our democracy like he's gutting the East Wing– but neither of those are his to break. Use your voice! Tell the President, your representatives, governors, and secretaries of state: #FreeFairElections are our right as Americans, and we won't settle for anything less.

Supreme Court case to watch: The RNC is trying to stop Mississippi from counting ballots if they were filled out & mailed ON TIME but arrive after election day. Let's be clear: this isn't about election integrity. It's about rigging the rules & it could have a big impact on your right to vote.

We're not getting straight answers from the DOJ and DHS about what they're doing with your private voter data. I'm joining 9 other Secretaries of State in demanding the truth. Watch, share, and join the calls for accountability. https://bit.ly/4r55dY4

The Constitution grants Presidents ZERO power over elections because our founders were all too familiar with the tyranny of kings. Trump doesn't respect our laws or America's values. If he tries another illegal executive order to rig our elections, we'll see him in court. https://bit.ly/4nKWGH1

The United States Elections Assistance Commission (EAC) is supposed to build trust & bring integrity to our nation's elections. Commissioner McCormick betrayed that mission. I will not stand for it. Oregonians and all Americans deserve better. It's time for her to step down. https://bit.ly/439MP69

I attended the Government to Government summit in Coos Bay and heard that our state must do more to be a better partner with sovereign nations. Partnership begins with listening and showing up for Tribal communities, and I’m committed to continuing that work.

No American should go hungry because people in Washington D.C. are playing politics. I joined @tinakotek.bsky.social & leaders across Oregon in demanding that USDA to take action now to make sure 750,000+ Oregonians can put food on the table. bit.ly/3WrxcmH

Portland is not a war zone, it's our home. While this administration continues to make a spectacle in an American city -- all to distract from their own failures, I want to remind you to stay focused and use your power: VOTE.

Last night at Pitch Latino Portland, Latino entrepreneurs took the stage to share their business's impact and vision. It was an honor to celebrate their innovation and proclaim October 09, 2025 as Latino Entrepreneurship Day! Investing in small businesses like these is investing in Oregon's future.

Representative Hòa Nguyễn was a dedicated, passionate, and accomplished public servant. Oregon is a more just, compassionate place because of her leadership. Our hearts are with her family and her community today as we all mourn her loss.

It's time to send our National Guard troops home.
The Trump Admin took them away from their jobs & families for this pointless political stunt. Every moment this Admin fails to follow the law just raises the bill for hardworking American taxpayers.

Cities are where government gets real, where the rubber meets the road, sometimes literally. That’s why I’m committed to being a true partner to our local leaders as we build a brighter future for Oregon together. Great to speak with the League of Oregon Cities last weekend!
