I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: this bill is trash. Get your sh*t together @HouseGOP.
22 May 2025
Bynum: I want to start off by saying just how laughable it is to be calling this bill “beautiful” and I would like to replace that word with “trash.”  It is a trash bill and here is why. It is a bill that threatens $300 billion in cuts to food assistance, it is a bill that puts health care further out of reach for nearly 14 million people. It is a bill that will make it so families have to choose between putting food on the table or filling a prescription. It is a bill that does nothing to lower costs or address the housing crisis

Our country has elevated the art of having a free press and this is 20 steps backwards.

We need more housing, more skilled workers, and more pathways to homeownership. I appreciated the conversation with Oregon Home Builders Association this week about how we get there.

Whether it’s wildfires, hurricanes, or flooding, the American people can’t afford to wait years before getting the help they need to rebuild in the wake of disaster.

Mr. Hegseth, Mr. President, and Mr. Speaker, we are here to honor these women. You won’t take their honor, you won’t take their dignity, and you won’t take our gratitude.

For 28 years, we've honored servicewomen and veterans at an annual bipartisan wreath laying. This year, the event, traditionally at Arlington National Cemetery, was canceled because of an Executive Order from Trump banning 'diversity events.’ So today we honored servicewomen outside the Capitol, laying a wreath in honor of their contributions and sacrifices to the United States. We will continue to recognize and fight for the inclusion of women in the armed services & for our veterans.

I don’t know about you, but I’m looking high and low for joy these days. Found it here in my district.

I wasn’t just a no, I was a hell no on giving ICE an additional $70 billion. What would you do with $70 billion dollars to actually help this country?

Mayors are our best ambassadors, and this weekend they made it look easy. But I know it’s not. Oregon’s mayors are in the middle of it all, from your housing options to your sidewalks to your traffic lights. To the mayors I had the chance to spend time with this weekend, you’ve got a friend in me.

Over 3.5 million Americans have lost their SNAP benefits, and it’s only getting worse. My amendment puts an end to the foolishness.

If Republicans really cared about making America healthy, they wouldn't be making it harder for moms and kids to buy fruits and vegetables.
