Today is #WeatherizationDay!

I’m celebrating families like the Jarretts, who cut their energy bills in half thanks to the very programs that Trump wants to eliminate.

I’ll keep fighting to preserve them so that no one has to choose between keeping the heat on or paying for their prescriptions.

Unidos Bridging Community has been hosting free, beginner-friendly Civics and Voter Education Workshops to learn how government works 🗳️

It was great to chat with Ximena and learn more about their work supporting and educating our thriving Latino community in #OR06!

🎀 As #BreastCancerAwarenessMonth wraps up, one last reminder: most women diagnosed with breast cancer have no family history of the disease. Schedule your screening, remind a friend to book hers, and know that early detection saves lives 💕

I’m heartbroken by the tragic helicopter collision in Yamhill County that claimed three lives yesterday. My heart goes out to the victims’ families, friends, and loved ones as they grieve this terrible loss. (1/2)

This family cut their energy bill in half! Thanks to weatherization upgrades and a new heat pump, the Jarrett family went from paying more than $400 to around $200.

It was great to celebrate with a ribbon cutting at their home in #Salem!

Trump has waged an illegal war for 8 months. Here’s how much Republicans’ rubber-stamping has cost you in that time:

🔺 Over $800 more on gas alone.
🔺 Over $2,000 more overall.

Our veterans had our backs. Now we must have theirs.

I toured VETcare in #Salem, where veterans experiencing homelessness can find safe housing, life skills training, mental health services, & support to get back on their feet. Thank you for the tour & for everything you do for those who served!

As the proud daughter of a Mexican immigrant, I’m celebrating the voices of immigrants who make our country stronger this #NationalImmigrantsDay.

I won’t stay silent as the Trump Admin cruelly targets and terrorizes our immigrant communities with disregard for our nation’s laws.

As the daughter of a police officer, I know the sacrifices our first responders make.

First responders put their lives on the line to keep our communities safe, and I know the importance of supporting their mental health. I introduced a bill to do just that. #NationalFirstRespondersDay

#OTD in 2009, President @barackobama.bsky.social signed the Matthew Shepard & James Byrd, Jr. Hate Crimes Prevention Act into law.

As we celebrate 17 years since this momentous day, we also continue to work to combat hate & violence in all its forms.

I was honored to have met Dolores Huerta, and I am heartbroken by her passing. Her legacy will continue to inspire generations of Latinos and Americans to fight for positive change and push our nation toward progress.

Her courage, work, and story are forever woven into the fabric of America.

❌$4,700: That’s how much extra the average Oregon family has paid for essentials under Trump.

❌$2 billion: That’s how much Trump pocketed during the first year of his presidency alone.

Trump’s economy is working for his and his billionaire buddies' families, not yours.

📣 More than ONE MILLION Americans made it loud and clear that we must save the Roadless Rule to protect our public lands NOW.

On a hike to Mirror Lake with Sierra Club, we talked about what’s at stake if Trump rips protections away from our lands, and how I’m working to safeguard them for good❗️

Rural farmers and ranchers serve as the backbone of the American economy.

I joined @repshontelbrown.bsky.social and Rep. Salinas to introduce the Farming Opportunities Training and Outreach Grant Program Reauthorization Act to preserve one of our nation’s most vital sectors.

Mass timber is strong, engineered wood that builds faster, lowers construction costs, and cuts carbon. It’s how PDX built its amazing new terminal!

My new bipartisan bill would expand mass timber production — creating good-paying jobs and building more housing right in our #OR06 backyard.
