Serves him right.  Slapping his name on the Kennedy Center was illegal and offensive. Americans deserve a president who focuses on them, not narcissistic enrichment projects.

This affirms what Oregonians already knew to be true—this slush fund is a blatant and corrupt use of taxpayer dollars. Keep staying loud against the corruption and I’ll do the same. https://t.co/...

This week, I met with paramedics and EMTs represented by Teamsters Local 223 on how to optimize our emergency response systems for patients and the workforce. I’m dedicated to working with them to ...

The vast majority of people I know from the American West feel the way I do—we want our kids to be able to know and love the beautiful public lands we grew up enjoying. The Roadless Rule helps guar...

I need to hear from you. My next town hall is this Saturday at 11 am in the Centennial High School Gym at 3505 SE 182nd Ave in Gresham. I hope to see you there! https://t.co/fa7OLeLREf

The United States is a country of immigrants. Making it harder for people who are playing by the rules and pursuing legal pathways to citizenship is un-American, dysfunctional, and cruel. https:/...

These families depend on our government to give them the benefits they’ve earned. And that’s what I heard from a constituent in my district. He reached out because our system was failing him. This ...

This past weekend, I joined other members of Congress and brave civil rights advocates in Alabama to fight for equal rights and fair representation. The people of Montgomery who courageously led t...
