Trump's win shows us who we really are: This article by professor Aaron W. Hughey is one of the most powerful and accurate post-election indictments of America you'll ever read. 😳👇

Serving in the Legislature for the last decade has been an incredibly rewarding opportunity. After a lot of thought with friends & family, we're excited to announce my candidacy to be Oregon's next Attorney General.

The CEO-to-worker pay gap is now 351-to-1. In 1965, the ratio was 21-to-1. Trickle down economics is nothing more than a cruel hoax designed to enrich bankers and wealthy executives.

HB 2417 passed the House! Expanding mobile crisis intervention programs (think @cahoots_wbc model) in Oregon. It's about getting the right kind of response to people in crisis. Ty @RepTawnaSanchez & @PamMarshORHD5 for fierce partnership. #PeopleCentered #orleg #orpol

A friendly run of the numbers: of the 102 bills that have been voted out of committee and are awaiting a floor vote, 94 were bipartisan out of committee and 86 unanimous. #orleg

The white supremacist coup attempt was shocking, but it didn’t come from nowhere. We’ve had decades of attacks on democracy through voter suppression, dark money & gerrymandering—designed, too, to ensure power for a minority. We must rebuild our We The People foundations.

If the Legislature doesn’t extend foreclosure protections in a special session this month, we risk repeating the mistakes of the Great Recession.
People need certainty right now. We must do everything we can to keep people in their homes. #orpol #orleg opb.org/article/2020/12/13/o…

States that let their eviction moratoriums expire have caused an additional >400k COVID cases & 10k deaths
Oregon's moratorium expires in 3 weeks. Either #orleg must come into special session to extend it or the Governor must act by executive order
