"The anticipated federal cuts to Medicaid make the outlook even worse. Becky Hultberg, the President & CEO of the Hospital Association of Oregon, said that if the trends continue, or worsen, the state will see 'a cascade of service closures, hospital consolidations or hospital closures.'"
🚨 At least 4 hospitals in Oregon are now at immediate risk of closure due to cuts in the Republican budget bill. My amendment, Amendment #64, would have reversed some of these cuts & given states more tools to keep these hospitals open. Republicans ALL voted against my Amendment. They own this.
📞This week, over 13,200 Oregonians joined my tele-town hall!    We talked about how the Republican budget will hurt working families, the news about Texas’s partisan redistricting, & more. Grateful for the honest questions — & look forward to continuing the conversation in-person next month!
I want to thank Governor Kotek for directing DLCD to slow their rulemaking process on farmland usage. We need a pragmatic approach that protects our farmland & supports our family farmers who are already struggling with extreme weather, trade & tariff retaliation, labor costs, & workforce shortages.
I don't usually comment on state level matters, because I do not have jurisdiction. However, in the past two days I have received a lot of concerned comments and messages from the district about a pending decision from Oregon's Department of Land Conservation and Development. My statement here:

When Andrew Jackson sent Native Americans on the Trail of Tears, it was a policy choice. When the British diverted food away from the Irish during The Great Hunger, it was a policy choice. The starvation & death in Gaza is no different. This is a policy choice & our government is complicit in it.
We are in the richest country in the history of the world. There is plenty of money to go around, and it should belong to the people who do the work every day! America’s unions will keep organizing to make sure working people have the freedom, fairness and security they deserve.
UPDATE: 🚨🚨🚨 "When Justice Department officials reviewed what Attorney General Pam Bondi called a “truckload” of documents related to Jeffrey Epstein earlier this year, they discovered that Donald Trump’s name appeared multiple times, according to senior administration officials."
UPDATE: Republicans are shutting down the House of Representatives EARLY so they don't have to vote on releasing the Epstein files. No bills will be voted on. No legislative business will get done. All so they can protect perverts who abused children. The party of law & order, everyone.
As the top Democrat on the Water, Wildlife, & Fisheries subcommittee, I was excited to welcome TV host & conservationist Jeff Corwin to speak to us about the need for endangered species protections. I will not allow Republicans to gut these protections so big oil can fatten their profits.

GRANDSTANDING?! Wanting to release the names of the rich and powerful perverts who abused children is grandstanding? Their blind allegiance to President Trump had blinded them to the depths of their own depravity. It’s sick.
The image is a screenshot of a tweet from Jake Sherman. 

It says: "NEWS — RALPH NORMAN, hardline conservative on the House Rules Committee, says the panel will not report a rule this week for bills, effectively shutting down the house floor. 

Why? 

He doesn’t want to vote on Democrats’ Epstein amendments. He says it’s grandstanding."
Cuts to our essential services and our jobs will devastate communities like Pittsburgh. That’s why America’s unions are mobilizing. We’re making sure ALL working people have the freedom, fairness and security they deserve to live their American Dream.

I have family who struggle with schizophrenia & traumatic brain injuries. Even today, I have to help them fill out piles of eligibility forms for their Medicaid. The Republican budget bill only makes this worse. But with most cuts set to begin in late 2026, we still have time to #SaveMedicaid.
@hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social is right: unions help make the American Dream a reality for workers. Federal workers who keep our essential services running deserve their American Dream, too. Tell your rep to sign the discharge petition and support the Protect America’s Workforce Act! 844-994-4554
We are hearing reports that the Trump Administration is releasing $73 million dollars in illegally withheld funding for Oregon public schools. I was proud to join the Oregon delegation in calling on these funds to be released. I will not stop until the funding Oregon is owed is delivered.
Union-busting is unacceptable—whether it’s on the shop floor or in the federal government. In the streets, the courts and the halls of power, we’ll fight to restore the collective bargaining rights of federal workers. The Protect America’s Workforce Act will make that happen.
