“Concepts of a plan” aren’t going to cut it. Millions of Americans will go without care in less than a month if the ACA tax credits aren’t extended. Real people will suffer if Republicans' inaction continues.

In a huge win, we’ve protected critical legal services for survivors of sexual assault & domestic violence.

The Trump administration tried to put new, unlawful conditions on VOCA & VAWA funds. We sued, and they reversed course.

We’ll continue to fight for survivors every day.

The Oregon DOJ is working every day to serve Oregonians — and that includes small businesses across our state.

That why we’re leading the case against the president’s illegal tariffs. These tariffs are hurting working families and small businesses every day.

Happy Thanksgiving from the Oregon Department of Justice!

We’re especially grateful for all the Oregonians who share input and stories via email, phone, mail, and town halls – your feedback allows us to most effectively serve you and uphold our shared values. Thank you.

Today we filed a lawsuit challenging new unlawful SNAP benefits eligibility requirements. We recently sent a letter to USDA, hoping they had made a mistake, but got no reply - so we took legal action. The Trump administration must follow the law.

We’ll keep fighting so no one in Oregon goes hungry.

Another wet Sunday with a joyous band of protesters.
"I just loved it.
We were so clearly all in it together.
The wavers/sign holders, the drivers, the bicyclists & pedestrians-all so responsive and supportive.
My sign said United We Stand.
This event fully played out in that spirit."

Good news! Last night a court ordered the federal government to return the search-and-rescue helicopter to Newport while the lawsuit is underway.

This is a big win for public safety in our coastal communities – and a reminder that the government must follow the law.

Today, we filed a lawsuit to compel the federal government to return Newport’s search-and-rescue helicopter – a critical step for community safety.

This helicopter was recently removed without public notice, community consultation, or risk assessment required by federal law.

This is a huge win that you might have missed last week: we successfully pressured airlines to shut down their data broker, which was selling passenger data to the government without a court order. I'm going to keep at it until other industries to follow suit.
After 404 Media's months-long reporting and pressure from lawmakers, the data broker owned by the U.S.’s major airlines will now shut down a program in which it sold access to hundreds of millions of flight records to the government and let agencies track peoples’ movements without a warrant.

This is about community safety: The sudden removal of the helicopter – without public notice, community consultation, or risk assessment required under federal law – has left one of the most dangerous stretches of the Pacific Coast without timely aerial rescue coverage.
