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.

BIG NEWS: 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.

Grateful that we were able to help reunite Jackie with her kids, but this case is further proof that Donald Trump's dangerous immigration agenda has nothing to do with keeping communities safe. I'm going to continue doing everything I can to protect Oregonians.

Tariffs are jacking up the cost of items at the store. You can thank Donald Trump for adding Halloween candy and costumes to that list. https://t.co/V1duaLV5kY
Q: Did you not find anything you wanted? Halloween shopper: No, everything was like $60 to $70, and that’s a lot. Q: So everything was more expensive than it was last year? Shopper: Oh yeah. 100%

Local leaders in Astoria, Oregon are building a hospital meant to withstand earthquakes and tsunamis, but the Trump administration canceled its FEMA grant, and the shutdown has stalled communication.

The anti-tariff ad, which President Trump pointed to in cutting off trade talks with Canada, uses several sound bites from an April 1987 speech, though not in the order President Ronald Reagan said...

Proud to support @SenJeffMerkley on the floor today as he sounds the alarm on Trump's creeping authoritarianism. My family fled Nazi Germany. We know a thing or two about what happens next.

Trump’s tariffs are raising prices across the board. Trump’s trade whims are sinking our farmers who are barely staying afloat and small businesses are closing their doors. Now he’s giving a $40 billion taxpayer-funded bailout to Argentina. https://t.co/gMSFjnMbdC
Q: What do you have to say to farmers who feel that the deal is benefitting Argentina more than it is them? TRUMP: Look, Argentina is fighting for its life, young lady. You don't know anything about it. You understand what that means? They are dying

Oregonians shouldn’t have to wait any longer for House Republicans to do what the Senate has done twice – pass this bill that helps communities in Oregon & nationwide cover costs for schools, roads, law enforcement & more. https://t.co/Jk18qFT8Oh
