President Trump’s tariffs are raising costs.
His first six months have made life MORE expensive – so much for lowering prices on day one...

It has officially been six months since I was sworn in to serve Oregon’s 5th.
In that time, I’ve listened to your priorities and amplified that in Congress to fight back against Republicans’ harmful agenda. Keep sharing your stories with me here ⬇️

Every child deserves access to a quality education, full stop.
This administration's continued assault on the Department of Education is effed-up.
I've said it before and I'm saying it now: Oregon kids can't afford these cuts.

Mark your calendars! This Wednesday, I’m hosting a telephone town hall focused on protecting access to Medicaid and Social Security.
If you’d like to join, RSVP here ➡️ forms.gle/E7nsRX2YDXx2...
As a mom of four, I know how important it is for our students to feel supported in the classroom.
That’s why I introduced the Connecting Students with Mental Health Services Act – to make sure students in rural areas have access to the mental health support they need and deserve.
One of the most important things you can do is tell me what’s on your mind – it’s your voices that fuel this fight.
If you or someone you know has been impacted by the Trump administration, I invite you to share your story and make your voice heard ⬇️

Healthcare providers in CD5 are bracing for cuts following the passage of Republicans’ budget.
I spoke with representatives from Neighborhood Health Center to hear their concerns. The fight for Medicaid is far from over & I’m proud to be in the fight alongside them.

President Trump’s trash budget doesn’t just cut healthcare and food assistance, it threatens enough renewable energy to power up to 1 MILLION homes.
Energy prices are going to go up, and Oregonians will pay the price.

The Republicans’ budget benefits the top 1% while attacking the services so many of us rely on. That’s just not right.
One in six Oregonians receive help from SNAP every month.
Food banks were already struggling after cuts to federal funding earlier this year, and now, the President’s trash budget is going to make it even more difficult for families to put food on the table.

The deadline to submit is October 30, 2025.

Are you a high school or middle school student passionate about coding?
The Congressional App Challenge is an opportunity for students from CD5 to showcase their coding skills. The winner receives an invitation to Capitol Hill to demo their app!
With their trash budget, Republicans picked winners and losers.
Black women shouldn’t have to work overtime just to earn the same as their peers. Currently, a Black woman makes 66 cents for every dollar a white man makes.
Economic justice means paying Black women what they deserve.
The NIL marketplace is currently operating like the Wild Wild West – as the mom of a D1 athlete, I know the stakes.
It's time for some guardrails.
I'm introducing the SCORE Act with Rep. Gus Bilirakis to make sure all students can earn their fair share.

I introduced multiple amendments to the trash budget to prevent cuts to the CFPB – Republicans rejected them.
The CFPB works to keep my constituents’ hard-earned money with them.
On @ushousefsc.bsky.social, I won't stop fighting to protect consumers from bad actors.

Over 1 MILLION Oregonians could lose their healthcare due to Republicans' Medicaid cuts.
We won't stop elevating the voices of those who will be impacted. The fight is far from over.
Republicans have made it so people insured by Medicaid will now have to fill out MORE paperwork to receive the care they need.
We’re fighting for less government red tape, not more. It's unacceptable.
Republicans' cuts to SNAP could eliminate over SIX BILLION meals each year.
To keep up with demand, food banks already struggling will now need to double their operations.
All so billionaires could get more money in their pockets.
