Congrats to @ORStatePolice for its work to battle the criminals bringing fentanyl via I-5 into Oregon. I’ll keep teaming up to ensure local law enforcement gets what it needs from the feds to fight this poison coming into our state.

This bill will make you and your family poorer and sicker so that Donald Trump, Elon Musk and their buddies can get richer. Republicans are launching a war on working families, and I’m going to be battling like hell to stop them in their tracks.
BREAKING: House Republicans passed their sweeping reconciliation package 215-214-1, securing a major win for Speaker Johnson and Trump. The package includes $3.8T in tax cuts, reductions to Medicaid and SNAP and a rollback of IRA clean energy credits. Every Democrat voted no.

Horrifying news this morning. This is another example of how extremist rhetoric and antisemitism has deadly consequences. This violence has no place in our country, and my thoughts are with the victims and their loved ones.
BREAKING: Two Israeli embassy staff members killed in shooting near Jewish museum in Washington, Homeland Security secretary says.

For-profit insurance companies are failing Americans. I'll be launching a full investigation to verify these whistleblower accounts. It's time to ban and criminalize these practices before more people die.

I warned that confirming RFK Jr. would be a deadly decision. By withholding vaccines from parents who want to keep their kids safe, Trump, RFK Jr. and every Republican that voted to confirm him will have the blood of American children on their hands.
BREAKING: U.S. regulators say annual COVID-19 shots for healthy younger adults and children will no longer be routinely approved. Companies that want to market their vaccines to those Americans will need to conduct large, new studies.

Trump is the reason IVF is under attack. Extremists are taking their cues from him. Trump is making IVF clinics and egg storage facilities less safe.

Once again my investigative team brought the receipts. Trump's IRS nominee just lied in his confirmation hearing about promising favors to tax scammers. We have the tapes to prove it.
WYDEN: Did you promise any tax promoter you would help them if you got confirmed?. LONG: I can answer that with an affirmative no. W: So you didn't meet with anybody when you were in town for the inauguration and promise help?. L: Not that I can think of. And I had food poisoning

What a college sports weekend in Oregon. Walkoff win for @OregonSB to keep a title run alive. Another league title for @OregonTF men w/a heckuva run also by the Ducks women. And @BeaverBaseball & @OregonBaseball both took big steps to host regionals next week. #GoBeavs #GoDucks.

Devastating news. There’s a lot going on right now, but Moshu was always a reliable source of light among all the dark. Rest easy my friend.

I successfully pushed the Biden administration to clamp down on how data brokers use your private data. Now it's the latest casualty in the Trump administration's efforts to help companies turn a profit at the expense of consumers.
Russell Vought, acting director of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, has canceled plans to more tightly regulate the sale of Americans’ sensitive personal data.

An under the radar part of Republicans' tax plan: they're going to end the incredibly popular free direct tax filing service. Trump will force you to fork out hundreds of dollars each year to TurboTax so he can give tax breaks to billionaires.

Republicans are gearing up to kick people off food assistance to pay for their billionaire bailout. Between this and gutting funding for Medicaid, Republicans are writing a prescription for a sicker America.

Republicans have released their plan to slash $700 billion from Medicaid, kick millions off their health insurance, and raise premiums for a million seniors on Medicare. They are full steam ahead to pay for their billionaire bailout by taking away your health care.
