There is some good news to share during this Teacher Appreciation Week: 3 federal judges recently issued separate rulings to block Trump’s attempt to defund public schools that include diversity, equity, and inclusion in their classrooms.
We also recommit to fighting antisemitism and working to uphold the ideal that—in the words of President George Washington—the federal government “gives to bigotry no sanction, to persecution no assistance.”
Oregonians are proud of the work we’ve done to make our state welcoming to everyone, regardless of who they are or who they love, and that’s not going to change under this administration.
The Trump administration’s proposed budget eliminates a successful $315 million program that helped preschool programs in Oregon and across the country. The White House's campaign to eliminate “woke” policies is a sham—they can’t even define the term.
Congresswoman Bonamici stands holding the front page of a report titled "Lessons for Creating Quality Care for Oregon's LGBTQIA+ Families" funded by Preschool Development Grants. The report was explicitly named in the Trump administration's fact sheet about their proposed budget cuts.
I’ve been visiting public schools across NW Oregon as part of my education tour, and at every stop I met teachers who care deeply about their students and strive to instill in them a love of learning.
Several courts have held that funding appropriated by Congress can't be rescinded later by the Executive branch; it's illegal and unconstitutional. Plus this is especially outrageous because it's essentially censorship based on the Trump administration's subjective opinion about what to fund.
In my visits to schools across NW Oregon I constantly hear about the need for more mental health resources, which is why I advocated to include this investment when we passed this bipartisan gun violence prevention law.
NEW: The Trump admin is moving to cancel $1 billion in school mental health grants, which were created with bipartisan support to hire psychologists and counselors. These resources were proven to reduce gun violence, but Trump wants them gone. He’s endangering our kids.
This bill passed out of the Education Committee with all Democrats voting against it, but it hasn’t come to the House floor for a vote yet. I urge everyone who cares about making higher education more accessible to speak out against this legislation.
The GOP student loan bill is a dream killer. It will rip away the opportunity to pursue a higher education for students who do not come from wealthy families—all to pay for tax cuts for billionaires.
I continue to be inspired by Jon and Jennifer Epstein’s dedication to saving lives following the tragic loss of their son. The educational program they helped create is already saving lives by increasing awareness about the dangers of fake pills laced with fentanyl.
Graphic with photo from roundtable with Rep. Bonamici, former HHS Sec. Becerra, and Jon and Jennifer Epstein on fentanyl awareness education. Text reads: "I introduced a bipartisan bill to educate students about the danger of accidental fentanyl poisoning. The Fentanyl Awareness for Children and Teens in Schools (FACTS) Act is modeled on the Beaverton School District’s Fake and Fatal fentanyl awareness curriculum in Oregon, which has successfully prevented student deaths since its launch."
This HHS report isn’t based on science; it’s propaganda meant to justify the Trump administration’s discriminatory anti-trans policies. In fact, the report doesn't even name any authors. It is not a law and it will not change Oregon’s strong protections for gender affirming care and trans rights.
Three months ago, Trump issued an EO attempting to stamp out standard-of-care medical treatments for trans kids. But buried in the EO was a clause directing the top federal health agency to publish a review of “best practices” for treating gender dysphoria in children. That report is finally here.

Thanks @repbonamici.bsky.social for the bi-partisan FACTS Act which will reduce the harms of fentanyl to young people. “Upstream awareness, education, & primary prevention efforts are largely untapped mitigations with huge potential.” bonamici.house.gov/media/press-...
