There is something deeply broken about an economy that creates trillionaires while people get buried under the cost of living and 42 million go hungry. The ultra-rich should realize that my Billionaires Income Tax, aimed at ensuring they pay their fair share, represents the moderate path forward.

Tesla shareholders have approved a pay package that could make CEO Elon Musk, already the world’s richest person, the world’s first trillionaire. https://cnn.it/43KZnkA

Trump is leaving families to starve but communities are stepping up. That he’s trying to interfere proves Trump really just wants kids and families to go hungry. I just introduced a bill to protect stores that offer discounts to SNAP recipients if they choose to.

The USDA sent an email to grocery stores telling them they are prohibited from offering special discounts to customers affected by the SNAP funding lapse. I'm aware of at least 2 stores that had offered struggling customers a discount, then withdrew it after receiving this email

Bondi, Bessent and Trump want to sweep Epstein under the rug. I’m not going to let them. The banks protected Epstein, and now the Trump administration is protecting the banks. More to come.
Senator Ron Wyden@wyden.senate.govNov 1(source)
The evidence shows federal prosecutors subpoenaed several banks with ties to Epstein as early as 2007. This makes it even more outrageous that the banks continued working with Epstein and enabled his horrific crimes. They ought to be criminally investigated.
Senator Ron Wyden@wyden.senate.govNov 1(source)
Turns out the sweetheart deal that Trump's former Labor Secretary Alex Acosta gave Epstein back in 2008 was even worse than we thought. Epstein's emails show Acosta tanked an investigation that had Epstein dead to rights on money laundering, and other financial crimes.

Heretic Coffee in Portland, Oregon has announced that starting Nov 1st they will provide breakfast to those in the community who will be facing hunger due to SNAP benefits not being sent out in November. "we know it’s not much, but we’ll do our best to keep you fed" - Heretic Coffee #Pinks

Republicans are letting SNAP expire tomorrow. Oregonians: I'm sharing resources in my instagram stories on where to find free meals and groceries. Our state is really pulling together to support each other when it's needed most, and that's why I'm damn proud to be an Oregonian.

More big news: the Senate just passed my bipartisan resolution to end Trump's global tariffs. This is a huge win and shows how unpopular Trump's tariffs really are. Now it's time for Mike Johnson to abandon his 6 week vacation and get this passed in the House.
Senator Ron Wyden@wyden.senate.govOct 29(source)
Some more good news for Portland. The question now remains how many more taxpayer dollars will Donald Trump waste on his failing lawsuits to try and fulfill his authoritarian fantasies. I'll keep working to defend the rights and values of every single Oregonian.
9th Circuit grants request to re-hear appeal of order blocking National Guard from Portland
A three-judge panel overturned the order blocking Trump from sending the National Guard to Portland, but Oregon asked for the appeal to be reheard by a larger panel.
Senator Ron Wyden@wyden.senate.govOct 29(source)
The Senate just passed our bipartisan resolution to END Trump's tariffs on Brazil. Tonight's vote sends a clear message that Trump's tariffs are damaging and unpopular. Now it's time for the House to do its job and get this passed to bring costs down.
