I ran into Marissa, a constituent and nurse with CareOregon at the store. She is worried about cuts to Medicare & Medicaid, as her patients rely on these programs for care.
I voted against cuts to the programs last week, and I'll keep fighting to protect them. #MedicaidMatters.

Quick check-in from #OR05 – subscribe to my newsletter to stay up to date with the work I’m doing on behalf of Oregonians.

I was glad to meet with members of the Oregon Bankers Association to discuss my work on @ushousefsc.bsky.social to create jobs, and how we can work together to increase rural economic growth.
As a freshman on the committee, I’m bringing new perspectives and ideas to get our economy back on track.
Trump is causing chaos and making life more expensive, and we were fired up about it in Sisters.
Thank you to all of you who attended my town hall and shared your stories. As I've said before, if there ever were a beacon of hope in this country, it's Oregon’s 5th.
As promised, it’s time for another Brews With Bynum!
I’ll be grabbing a quick sip in Silverton this Saturday from 1:00PM – 2:00PM PT – I hope you’ll come by to chat about what’s on your mind!

Everywhere I go, I hear from constituents who depend on their Social Security payments.
The 160,000 people in our district deserve to know that this EARNED benefit isn’t going anywhere.
I’ll always fight to protect Social Security.
Shared a quick bite with the owners of Fresco and Fryed, a delicious family-owned food truck in Bend, and presented them with a Congressional certificate!
Highly recommend the tacos 🤌🤌
Every kid deserves a quality education – full stop.
That’s why I’m leading the IDEA Full Funding Act. We have to deliver for our kids with disabilities and ensure their access to a free and appropriate education.
Magdalyn, I'm so glad my office was able to help you get your Social Security issue resolved.
If you or someone you know in #OR05 needs assistance with a federal agency, give us a call! (503) 387–8651.
100 days in!
Here’s what I’ve been working on ⬇️
Sarah and Molly, young entrepreneurs from West Albany High School, are tackling the affordable housing crisis head on with their app, Nest Mate 🏘️!
Congratulations on winning the Congressional App Challenge – you make me proud!
👋 Quick reminder! The deadline for the Art Competition is around the corner!
🗓️ Submissions are due April 21

The SAVE Act makes it harder for eligible voters to vote by requiring documents like a passport.
My amendment was simple: make the passport process faster! But House Republicans refused to consider it.
I won’t disenfranchise voters, so I voted no.
Another trash budget that hurts Oregonians, another no vote from me.
Today the House is voting on a bill to increase overdraft fees to $35. Costs are high enough already – how out of touch can you be?
I voted against it in committee, and I'm voting against it again today.
It was a beautiful weekend at Cline Falls State Park ☀️
The Deschutes River Basin is essential to the health, economy, and environment in Central Oregon – that’s why last week, I introduced the Deschutes River Conservancy Reauthorization Act to unlock funding to preserve and restore our rivers.
Costs are skyrocketing.
The stock market is crashing.
The American people can’t wait. I’m fighting back.
Alisa presented a painting done by an eight-year-old girl in Ukraine.
The painting shows a girl smiling, surrounded by the souls of all of her dead friends. It is a reminder not just of the children losing their lives, but that even in the sadness, we can still smile.
Today, I was joined by Ukrainian women from #OR05 who fled their homes following Russia’s first invasion.
We must stand tall with them and for them to protect and defend Ukraine, its children, its families, and its democracy.
After votes last night, I passed some words of wisdom on the walls of the Capitol that speak volumes right now.
The power of the people is stronger than the people in power.
