The Supreme Court just gutted the Voting Rights Act.
States can now splinter minority communities into multiple Congressional Districts to eliminate their impact on elections. It's free rein to discriminate against communities of color.

The Coast Guard helicopter in Newport is absolutely critical to protecting our coastal communities.
That’s why @wyden.senate.gov, @repvalhoyle.bsky.social, and I fought to keep it in Newport, where it belongs.

The Government Accountability Office, an independent agency part of the legislative branch, plans to examine the Justice Department’s handling of the Epstein files.
A bipartisan group of senators raised concerns that the department violated the law.
I stand by calling Trump’s crypto scheme the "Mt. Everest of corruption."
It was wrong when I protested it a year ago, and it’s wrong now.
I’ll keep fighting to pass my End Crypto Corruption Act to stop the grift!
I called for an audit into the DOJ after the department ignored the clear deadline to release the Epstein Files laid out in the bipartisan Epstein Files Transparency Act.
I will keep pushing for transparency and justice!
Déjà vu: Trump is hosting ANOTHER corrupt party for mega millionaires who invested in his crypto grift.
Pay-to-play on full display! This is why we need to pass my End Crypto Corruption Act!
Wow!!
It was a big deal when Roger Bannister broke the 4-minute mile in 1954.
Now, 72 years later, Sabastian Sawe has broken the 2-hour marathon!!
And just 11 seconds behind, Yomif Kejelcha also broke the 2-hour barrier!

Thank you to Senators Merkley and Wyden for supporting the Absentee and Mail Voter Protection Act to push back on legislation targeting vote by mail and absentee ballots, and uphold the integrity of our elections. For decades, Oregon has run safe, accurate, and fair vote-by-mail elections. #orpol
