Today, we honor the life and legacy of Martin Luther King.
I’ll share with you one of my favorite Dr. King quotes: “We will have to repent in this generation, not only for the evil words and deeds of the bad people, but for the appalling silence of the good people.”

Improving water infrastructure unlocks more housing, more jobs, and a stronger economy.
That’s why I fought for 6 MILLION in funding for CD5 that will improve our water infrastructure and increase access to clean drinking water for my constituents.

President Trump announced today that he'll stop all federal funding to Oregon on February 1st.

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.

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 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.
