This investment will help to strengthen local economies and address the affordable housing crisis, which is exactly what Congress envisioned when we passed the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law. I will continue to advocate for the policies and resources Oregonians need to thrive.

It is exciting that NW Oregon is receiving federal funding for projects that will transform formerly contaminated land into spaces that benefit Oregonians.

Funding amounts: Astoria, Cleanup Heritage Square $2 million*; Northwest Oregon Economic Alliance, Community-wide Assessment $1.2 million; Tillamook County, Community-wide Assessment $500,000; North Plains, Cleanup Glencoe Opportunity Area $1 million*; Beaverton, Community-wide Assessment $500,000; Portland, Community-wide Assessment $500,000; Oregon Business Development Department (Portland, Salem) $650,000*. *Funding is from Bipartisan Infrastructure Law

This is a stark reminder of how out of touch the GOP priorities are with the real needs of working people in the country. I will continue to work with my colleagues to stop these disastrous cuts to Medicaid and other essential programs.

It’s not surprising that what Donald Trump is calling a “big beautiful bill” did not get enough support to move to the full house for a vote. Some GOP members won't be satisfied until more Americans are kicked off their health care so they can give tax cuts to billionaires.

President Donald Trump’s agenda has been thrown into chaos after a group of GOP hardliners blocked the bill in a key committee vote on Friday – dealing a major embarrassment to House Republican leaders and Trump himself.

Head Start has been essential for both children and parents for 6 decades, and we must continue to protect and strengthen the program so it continues to benefit future generations.

Suzanne Bonamici@repbonamici.bsky.socialMay 16(source)

This weekend marks the 60th anniversary of Head Start—a program that has helped millions of children and their families with comprehensive early learning, health, nutrition, and family support services.

We should focus on supporting and improving the public schools that serve more than 92% of public school students before we support more funding for charter schools.

Suzanne Bonamici@repbonamici.bsky.socialMay 15(source)

As an expert witness testified at a recent education hearing, abrupt closures are damaging and disruptive for students, families, communities, and the broader public school system.

Suzanne Bonamici@repbonamici.bsky.socialMay 15(source)

A 2024 study that examined the closures of charter schools from 1998 to 2022 found that more than 25% of charter schools close within five years of opening. This increases to 49% within fifteen years of opening.

Suzanne Bonamici@repbonamici.bsky.socialMay 15(source)

Studies show that charter schools close at concerningly high rates and often have problems with conflicts of interest, lack of accountability, and failure to protect students’ civil rights—among other issues.

Suzanne Bonamici@repbonamici.bsky.socialMay 15(source)

I often say that education is one of the best investments we can make, but how we direct funding should be based on evidence and research.

Suzanne Bonamici@repbonamici.bsky.socialMay 15(source)

I will do all I can to stop this illegal and unconstitutional attempt to gut these critical programs.

Suzanne Bonamici@repbonamici.bsky.socialMay 15(source)

There is nothing “wasteful” or “discriminatory” about helping women enter the workforce. DOGE and the Trump administration are trying to send us back 105 years to a time before the Women’s Bureau at the Dept. of Labor was established.

Suzanne Bonamici@repbonamici.bsky.socialMay 15(source)

Research shows that punitive measures like physical restraint and isolation are poor methods to change student behavior—and often are traumatizing for students. I am leading legislation that would end corporal punishment in schools. bonamici.house.gov/media/press-...

Bonamici, McBath, Moore, Wilson Introduce Bill to End Corporal Punishment in Schools

The disturbing use of corporal punishment in schools must stop.

Suzanne Bonamici@repbonamici.bsky.socialMay 15(source)

We have repeatedly seen a profound lack of respect from the Trump administration for people with disabilities and their families. I will do all I can to advocate for students with disabilities and protect their right to receive a quality education.

Suzanne Bonamici@repbonamici.bsky.socialMay 15(source)

But that appointment is raising alarms because the schools Ms. Diaz runs have high rates of using physical restraint and isolation on autistic students.

Suzanne Bonamici@repbonamici.bsky.socialMay 15(source)

The Trump administration selected Diana Diaz, the founder and executive director of a group of Arizona charter schools for autistic students, to serve at the deputy assistant secretary for special education.

Big news from @bethhawkins.bsky.social: Linda McMahon’s top special education official ran a school for autistic students that restrained 41 percent of its students in the 2021 school year www.the74million.org/article/trum...

As we approach the anniversary of Brown v. Board this weekend, we must acknowledge that many charter schools perpetuate school segregation. #EduSky

Congratulations to the Lincoln High School and Sprague High School Constitution Teams, co-champions of the We the People civics competition. Both teams showed a deep knowledge of Constitutional law and U.S. history. Thank you to the students, coaches, and teachers for giving us hope for the future.

I stand with Planned Parenthood and their providers against this extremist attack.
