Now the House Republicans need to get back to Washington DC and work to get the government back open.

The Trump administration finally agreed to release funding that Congress set aside to keep people from going hungry during a disruption like this shutdown, but it should not have taken a lawsuit to get these funds released.

I visited Victor Cruz at the ICE detention center in Tacoma today. He should not be there. ICE took Victor not because he committed a crime, but because he has the same name as someone else. I continue to call for his immediate release and his return to his home and family.

LAWSUIT UPDATE RE: NATIONAL GUARD IN PORTLAND: National Guard deployment remains paused until Friday; judge says deployment is likely unlawful. Today's ruling is a step toward truth and accountability. Read more about what happened and what's next.

BREAKING NEWS: National Guard deployment remains paused until Friday; judge says deployment is likely unlawful.

A federal judge just issued a preliminary injunction until 5pm Friday 11/7, in order to take additional time to weigh the evidence presented at trial this week. The judge indicated in the order, based on her initial review of the evidence, that deployment of National Guard
troops in Portland is likely unlawful. This means that the National Guard still cannot be deployed to Oregon.

“Today’s ruling is a step toward truth and accountability. From the beginning, this case has been about making sure the facts—not the President’s political whims—guide how the law is applied. We’re grateful the court is taking the time to get it right, and we’ll keep doing everything we can to protect Oregon’s ability to govern itself and keep our communities safe.”

For now, the National Guard still cannot be deployed to Oregon.

We anticipate a final ruling from the judge by Friday.
We’ll continue to share updates as we have them.

Although there is some momentary relief with the court's SNAP decision, Republicans continue to try to cut off critical services for American families. 65,000 children are set to lose access to their Head Start Program.

Shutdown puts thousands of schoolkids at risk of losing Head Start services

If the government shutdown isn't resolved by Nov. 1, some 65,000 low-income children will be at-risk of losing access to Head Start child care and early learning.

I am joining a War Powers resolution (H.Res.126) introduced by Congressman Crow to clarify that Congress has not authorized these attacks by the U.S. military.

The President does not have the authority to commit acts of war without authorization from Congress, but his administration is attacking boats in the Caribbean and military installations in Venezuela. 🧵

Today’s ruling that SNAP benefits must continue during the Republican shutdown is a relief, but it never should have come to this.

This morning I spoke with Oregonians who have been able to feed themselves and their families because of SNAP, anti-hunger advocates, and colleagues in the Oregon delegation. 🧵

This proposal is outrageous and harmful. The Trump administration needs to stop attacking and terrorizing the trans community. Medical decisions should be made by patients and health care providers, not by the government.

Trump pushes an end to medical care for transgender youth nationally

The White House plans to bar hospitals that treat transgender children and youth from getting any Medicare and Medicaid payments. The move would affect trans youth who have private insurance, too.

As we approach one month of the government shutdown, I am here in Washington, DC fighting for access to affordable health care and SNAP benefits. I continue to call on my Republican colleagues to get back to work so we can open the government for the American people.

Victor Cruz is a respected member of the community with a valid work permit and no criminal record. I stand with Atziri and the rest of the Cruz family in calling for ICE to immediately release him from custody.

Suzanne Bonamici@repbonamici.bsky.socialOct 30(source)

Many families, like Victor’s, are being ripped apart by an out-of-control federal agency that is using cruel, violent, and often illegal enforcement tactics perpetrated by masked agents in unmarked vehicles. 🧵

I've heard from constituents who are afraid to take their children to school and children who are afraid to go to school. And as a reminder, according to the United States Supreme Court, every child has the right to attend public schools regardless of their immigration status.

It's outrageous that ICE is now arresting and detaining parents while they are dropping their kids off at school, which is traumatizing to the students and the entire school community.

The Trump Administration repealed sensitive location guidance that prevented ICE enforcement in schools, hospitals, and places of worship. 🧵

The Executive branch can’t hit ‘delete’ and undo an act of Congress. The Trump administration must reverse this decision so Oregonians and Americans don’t go hungry.

Congress created a contingency fund for SNAP to keep food assistance funded during a government shutdown. But now the Trump Administration has deleted information about it from the USDA website and is refusing to release the funds. That’s a choice, and it’s outrageous.

Oregon, Washington sue Trump administration to fund SNAP during shutdown

The states are among many that are going to court to force the federal government to use emergency reserve money to prop up the federal food assistance program.
