Donald Trump is attacking the independence of the Federal Reserve, by threatening criminal investigations into Jerome Powell.
I can’t – and won’t – standby and let that happen. I’ll continue fighting to make sure the Fed works for Oregonians, not President Trump.

$6 MILLION in funding for CD5 that I fought for passed the House!
This money will help Oregonians increase access to clean drinking water from Molalla, to Bend, to Halsey, to Oregon City.
Now, it's headed to the Senate – stay tuned for updates!
During the Flat Fire, recreational drones interfered with firefighter response times, putting our communities at unnecessary risk.
My new bill, the Wildfire Aerial Response Safety Act will make sure that things like this don’t happen next wildfire season.
WATCH ⬇️
Speaker Johnson and Republicans are staring down a January 30th deadline to fund the government.
Our country can’t afford for us to be ineffective – I’m ready to get to work with anyone to get these budget bills across the finish line.
Headed back for to DC for another busy week – I’m fired up and ready to fight for Oregonians.
One thing is clear – this administration has a slippery relationship with the truth.
The White House is targeting me for calling them out on their BS. They added me to a list of “Democrats Declaring War on Law Enforcement” and lied about what I said.
I will not be intimidated and I will never stop demanding the truth.

I’m heading back to Portland today to demand a full investigation into the shooting last night.
We need answers and we need accountability.
I said what I said.
Here in Portland, we’ve already showed the President how ridiculous his policies are.
Stop fucking with us.
I don’t mess around when it comes to healthcare.
I just voted to extend the #ACA subsidies, because we don’t need higher prices, and because no one should have to go without care.
It passed the House, and now, it goes to the Senate – let’s get it done.
As a member of @ushousefsc.bsky.social, I’m fighting back against this administration’s attempts to gut consumer protections – and we’re winning.
The CFPB works to keep your hard earned money in your pocket where it belongs. Keeping it funded is essential.
This week, we’ll be voting to extend tax credits in the #AffordableCareAct – I’m all in.
The administration is blurring the line between law enforcement and state-sanctioned terrorism with guardsmen deployed to our cities and ICE agents patrolling the streets.
Today in Minnesota, it led to tragedy. The President needs to stop his attempted takeovers of our cities.
Yeah, I did confront Speaker Johnson last night.
I told him the facts can't only be shared with one side of the aisle, and he can't continue to just bend the knee to Trump.
My constituents are upset, and they deserve answers.
The more we learn about microplastics, the more it becomes clear that they are everywhere, and posing significant risk to our health.
That's why I introduced the Microplastics Safety Act.
We can't take a wait-and-see approach – we need to act now.

As costs continue to rise, Americans are going to be forced to choose between things like putting food on the table and their monthly prescriptions.
No one should be forced to make this choice – that’s why I’m fighting to protect healthcare for all Oregonians.
5 years ago, some goons who failed to respect the voices of the people & their votes attacked the Capitol.
My prayers are with the families of those whose lives were lost that day, & I am thankful for the officers who bravely defended our democracy.
Political violence has no place in this country.
Speaker Johnson refused to hold a vote to extend the ACA subsidies last year, so Democrats are forcing a vote this week.
For me, it's a no brainer – protecting healthcare for Oregonians and keeping costs low are non-negotiables.
Let's get this across the finish line.
