Since President Trump took office, energy costs have skyrocketed 11%. He promised hardworking American families with lowering the cost of living, instead he gave massive tax breaks to his billionaire buddies. He turned his back on you and lied.

Some people are going to have to go without health care because Republicans have yet to extend the Affordable Care Act tax credits. If they’re serious about helping American families, they should work across the aisle with @HouseDemocrats to extend ACA premium tax credits.

Donald Trump and Republicans lied when they promised they would lower the cost of living. 16,000 Oregonians are going to see their health care costs skyrocket, and some may have to choose between filling a prescription and putting food on the table.

I led a letter to the Trump Admin calling out their failure to meet basic goals for clearing dangerous brush in our forests. This work prevents fires and protects communities, but they are FAILING. Hitting only HALF their target is UNACCEPTABLE. I’m pushing for a plan that

On this day in 1970, Cesar Chavez was jailed for his work defending the rights of farmworkers. His courageous efforts helped transform labor justice in America. Today, 55 years later, we honor his legacy and recommit to fighting for fair treatment of all workers and laborers.

ALL @HouseDemocrats have signed a discharge petition to extend Affordable Care Act tax credits. We just need a few, reasonable Republicans to join us to STOP massive premium increases that will make health care UNAFFORDABLE for millions of Americans.

Just got off the floor to call out President Trump and his Administration's desperate attempts to hide the truth about what is happening inside ICE facilities. I visited the Tacoma ICE facility, where ICE tried to lie to my face. I won’t let them get away with it. Hear my full

Nearly 1 in 20 households is falling behind on their utility bills... yep, and Republicans' Big, Ugly Bill will only make things worse. President Trump is only interested in giving his billionaire buddies HUGE tax breaks, not lowering costs for hardworking Americans.

Past-due balances are becoming a reality for many U.S. households as they struggle to keep up with costlier utility bills.

Last week, I visited the ICE detention center in Tacoma to ensure ICE is treating detainees humanely and honoring due process. From my visit, it was clear ICE is trying to hide the truth about its facilities. Read more from the Oregon Capital Chronicle ⬇️

Trump is making it harder for Americans to get help from the Social Security Administration. I’m introducing a bill to require SSA to reinstate the customer service data metrics that they eliminated from their website earlier this year. The American people deserve full

We’re now more than a month into ACA open enrollment, and families are still telling me they’re bracing for premiums they can’t afford. Republicans still won’t come to the table to work with @HouseDemocrats to lower these RIDICULOUS costs.
