As we wait for more information, I’ll be keeping the victims, their families, and friends in my prayers.
My heart breaks for the families of the two young Israeli embassy staff who were killed last night outside of the Capital Jewish Museum.
This hateful and antisemitic attack should chill us all to the core. This type of political violence has no place in this world.
Good early morning from the Capitol, where I’ve been duking it out all night over this trash budget.
I won’t stop fighting for what’s best for Oregonians.
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: this bill is trash.
Get your sh*t together, House Republicans.
Tonight, I asked my Republican colleagues a simple question: Are you willing to work to lower costs for your constituents?
If they are, they should support my amendments to their bill for billionaires.
Chair Foxx wants to ignore the fact that 201,000 people in her district will lose healthcare because of Republicans’ trash bill.
Republicans on the Rules Committee want to bury their heads in the sand – I won’t let them.
They can try to run from the facts, but they can’t hide.
My bipartisan ELEVATE Act passed through @ushousefsc.bsky.social last night.
Speaker Johnson is pulling all nighters to make life LESS affordable – I'm getting to work to cut red tape and costs for small businesses just getting started.
Ball's in your court, Mr. Speaker.
🚨New nonpartisan analysis just dropped🚨
Under the "Big, Beautiful Bill," the bottom 10% will see their income decrease while the top 10% will see an increase.
Stealing from people who need it to give to the rich. Pathetic.
Read it for yourself ⬇️

Republicans are trying to advance their bill tonight at 1AM… and it’s because they know it’s trash.
They know it cuts Medicaid and makes it harder for people to make ends meet, AND doesn’t even reduce the deficit – it just makes the rich, richer.
They just don't want you to see it.
Meet Rose, a first grader from my district, who is just starting to take steps thanks to therapy she receives through Medicaid.
This is who Republicans are working day and night to take healthcare away from.
Medicaid isn’t meaningful?
The 13.7 million Americans who will lose healthcare thanks to your bill would disagree.
I’m all about the data, so let me hit you with some numbers:
1 in 3 kids in Oregon are on Medicaid
80,000 people in our state use SNAP to put food on the table
13.7 MILLION Americans rely on Medicaid for health care
And 220 Republicans want to steal those benefits. That's BS.
On my way back to DC to stop Republicans from passing their Bad Billionaire Boys Bill.
They're out here working overtime to strip 13 million Americans of their healthcare – not on my watch.
Ducks hit it out of the park this weekend 💪😤
Keep it up, boys! #GoDucks
Butter Pecan is for people who pay bills.
Go get some at the Sno Cap Drive In in Sisters! 🍦
This #MentalHealthAwarenessMonth, check in on yourself and on your people.
Let’s break the stigma and make sure we are providing our communities with the support they need.
If you or someone you know needs assistance, please call 9-8-8.
When it comes to our kids, I’ll always go all in.
I met with Oregon school administrators and we discussed the fight for funding for our rural schools.
We MUST center our children and provide opportunities for them to expand their horizons.
Biking from San Diego to St. Augustine?! One bike and a whole lot of determination – respect 👏
Way to represent Oregon's 5th, Bob!
