Strengthening education is the best way to improve lives and sustain the economy. Technology is evolving rapidly and there are many ways it can help students learn and close opportunity gaps. 🧵

Strengthening education is the best way to improve lives and sustain the economy.

This is good news for Oregonians. I am pleased to have cosponsored this bipartisan bill, which provides much-needed support to rural communities that are home to federal lands.

Suzanne Bonamici@repbonamici.bsky.socialDec 10(source)

Schools deserve a strong share in the revenue generated in their counties. Today the House sent the Senate-passed Secure Rural Schools Reauthorization Act to the president's desk. 🧵

Cuts to funding affect the capacity to meet rising community needs. Despite the challenges, these nonprofit organizations keep offering hope, dignity, and support to those they serve.

Suzanne Bonamici@repbonamici.bsky.socialDec 10(source)

In partnership with the Nonprofit Association of Oregon, I hosted a roundtable discussion with local non-profit leaders about the challenges accessing stable funding and keeping a supported and protected workforce. 🧵

Mayor Beach Pace and I did some shopping and had a great visit with local business owners at Paisano’s Plaza in Hillsboro. The Trump administration’s horrific mass deportation policies have resulted in fewer shoppers, so please stop by if you can! Also my Mangonada was delicious!

We must protect access to public defenders and avoid delaying justice. As the Reverend Martin Luther King Jr. said in his letter from Birmingham jail: “Justice too long delayed is justice denied.”

Democratic lawmakers warn of 'cascading consequences' of underfunding defense lawyers

Forty-nine Democratic lawmakers on Monday called on Congressional appropriators to boost funding for court-appointed lawyers representing indigent defendants, warning that this year’s cash shortfall l...

They deliver cleaner recycling operations, safer drinking water systems, stronger wastewater treatment, and faster trash removal. I'm glad that the Senate advanced our bipartisan bill and look forward to its swift passage in the House to keep families and the environment healthy.

Suzanne Bonamici@repbonamici.bsky.socialDec 9(source)

Extending these successful EPA programs will strengthen the recycling and water systems that stop plastic at its source and support projects that clear debris that damages our shores. These tools work.

Clean water and a healthy ocean support every family in the country and every sector of the economy. 🧵

Senate Unanimously Passes Sullivan, Whitehouse, Bonamici, Carter Legislation to Reauthorize Marine Debris Grant Programs

Jackie never should have been detained, and I will continue to work with my colleagues in the Oregon delegation to fight ICE’s cruel policies that target and separate immigrant families.

Suzanne Bonamici@repbonamici.bsky.socialDec 9(source)

It was an honor to spend the evening with Jackie Merlos to celebrate her release from detention and reunion with her four young children. 🧵

Suzanne Bonamici@repbonamici.bsky.socialDec 6(source)

Oregon has seen a significant increase in ICE activity that is sowing fear in the community, including indiscriminately detaining U.S. citizens. ICE is an out of control federal agency and must be stopped.

Suzanne Bonamici@repbonamici.bsky.socialDec 6(source)

The Trump administration said they were going to focus enforcement actions on people with criminal records, but that's not what they are doing. 🧵

ICE Arrest Data Shows Many Immigrants With No Criminal Record

In high-profile operations, more than half of those arrested had no criminal record, an analysis shows.

Trump's racist tirades and actions are making our country a more dangerous and hateful place and must not be tolerated. I strongly condemn his offensive attack on Somalis and Rep. Omar.

Trump calls Ilhan Omar 'garbage' and says Somalis should 'go back to where they came from'

The president, who has a history of disparaging African people and migrant communities, launched into a tirade over Minnesota's Somali population at the end of a Cabinet meeting.

No one should be shut out of a future job because of a machine’s decision. We must act now to keep the doors of opportunity open to all who are seeking employment.

There are numerous examples of flawed AI systems that produce biased outcomes for people of different backgrounds, especially for lower wage jobs.

Suzanne Bonamici@repbonamici.bsky.socialDec 5(source)

As more companies rely on artificial intelligence to make hiring decisions, we must establish safeguards to protect workers from potential discrimination. 🧵

Bonamici, Deluzio, Moylan Introduce Bipartisan Legislation to Safeguard Workers from Discriminatory AI Hiring Practices

As more companies rely on artificial intelligence to make hiring decisions, we must establish safeguards to protect workers from potential discrimination.

The U.S. Coast Guard saves lives, and the federal government needs to let them do their jobs. The return of the Newport helicopter is a big win for the safety of the entire Oregon coastal community.

US Coast Guard returns rescue helicopter to Newport

The U.S. Coast Guard has permanently returned its rescue helicopter to Newport, after removing the aircraft without explanation in October. That’s according to Oregon Democratic Sen. Ron Wyden, who sh...

Suzanne Bonamici@repbonamici.bsky.socialDec 4(source)

I’m introducing this legislation to provide immigrants with the right to have their removal hearings virtually so they can continue through the legal process while staying safe. It will also make hearings more accessible for people who face mobility and transportation challenges.
