I came to Congress to make life better for Oregonians, and that’s exactly what this funding will do.
I’ll continue to fight to make sure this funding for projects across our district is delivered to our communities.

If you’re ever wondering if I read your comments, I do! It’s important to me as your representative to know how you’re feeling, so I took some time to respond to your comments ⬇️
Thousands of miles later, Bob now holds the Guinness World Record for the oldest man to cycle across America. Way to go, Bob!
Biking from San Diego to St. Augustine?! One bike and a whole lot of determination – respect 👏
Way to represent Oregon's 5th, Bob!

The data doesn't lie: Trump's policies are not working for the economy or for the American people.
Prices are rising, employers aren't hiring, and life is getting harder – not easier – for Oregonians.
It's time for another telephone town hall – I hope you'll join me for the last one of the Give 'Em Hell tour.
If you'd like to join Monday, August 4 at 6PM, please RSVP with your name and contact information below. I can't wait to hear from you!

I'm excited to announce that the funding for all 15 projects in CD5 I fought for is one step closer to becoming reality.
I'll keep pushing to ensure this funding heads to CD5 so our communities can invest in clean drinking water, public safety, child care, and affordable housing.
Happy #NationalInternDay to our incredible group of summer interns!
In addition to being the stars of our TikToks, these wonderful young leaders have held it down answering constituent calls, giving Capitol tours, and much more.
Thank you for all your hard work!
Planned Parenthood provides essential healthcare to Oregonians across our state, nearly 60% of whom rely on Medicaid.
The Trump administration's attempt to defund these clinics is dangerous – I stand with @agdanrayfield.bsky.social in the fight to protect access to care.

Thanks to Trump's tariffs, the prices of household items like toothpaste, toilet paper, and detergent are expected to go up next month.
This administration's economic policies have been misguided and chaotic, and Oregonians are the ones paying the price.

Portland is home to the Blazers, and it should stay that way.
This is about the integrity of our city, fans, and employees who make the team whole. Selling this team would be an insult to the city.

FEMA just denied Oregon’s request for natural disaster relief assistance.
When disasters strike, Oregonians deserve support – not to be left behind by the Trump Admin.
I’ll keep pushing for the resources we need to rebuild and to prevent future damage to our communities.
Trumps’s trash bill is making life worse for Oregonians by cutting critical programs like SNAP and Medicaid.
It’s shameful that our communities and families are footing the bill so Trump can give tax breaks to billionaires.
I’ll continue fighting against this harmful agenda.
It’s not every day I agree with DOGEai, but it thinks my Microsplastics Safety Act is a good idea!
Safe to say it’s past time we figure out how microplastics are impacting our health.
Republicans’ budget doesn’t just cut Medicaid and SNAP, it targets Planned Parenthood, where women across the country go for reproductive care.
This means less access to cancer screenings, pre-natal care, and contraception. It’s dangerous.

The Trump administration is withholding $5.5 BILLION in public school funding across the country, including $70 MILLION for Oregon public schools.
The President is steamrolling over programs our communities rely on, and this time, it's our kids who will pay the price.
CD5, be sure you have an evacuation plan and a go bag, and continue to monitor centraloregonfire.org for alerts.

Our Oregon firefighters and first responders have been out fighting the Cram fire – the largest wildfire in the country so far this year – for weeks.
I am beyond grateful to them for their bravery and their commitment to keeping our communities safe.

But we fought back, and we won – funding has resumed. Now, our kids can get back to the classroom, and families can continue to receive the support they need.

Earlier this year, the Trump administration withheld $12 billion in federal funding for Head Start programs, including over $500,000 for Clackamas County Children’s Commission.
Without this funding, they would’ve lost 40 staff members, and have been forced to close ten classrooms.
