Oregon agencies made $2.5 billion in unintentional accounting errors in 2025, up $700 million from 2024 but lower than the previous two years.

Nationally, homelessness went down in 2025. In Oregon, it went up. Oregon does not need more excuses, more task forces, or more taxpayer-funded nonprofit layers. Oregon needs accountability approach. The Democrat model is not working. opb.org/article/2026/06/02/h…

Kotek said the council would focus on growth, jobs, investment, and competitiveness. Unions want to focus on preserving the status quo. Oregon’s economy is driven by workers, businesses, farmers, manufacturers, and entrepreneurs, not government unions. oregonlive.com/politics/2026…

Do not let the name fool you. “Mother PAC” is not just a group of moms talking about families. It is a progressive political PAC pushing Oregon further left under the banner of the “care economy.” Their agenda is bigger government, taxpayer-funded programs, reproductive-justice politics, equity-based policy, and electing candidates who will carry that agenda into Salem. This is how the left sells radical policy: wrap it in soft words like “care,” “family,” and “mothers,” then use it to grow government power.

Oregon Democrats sent a very clear message on May 19th. They did not move to the middle. They did not listen to working families who are tired of higher taxes, higher costs, failing schools, homelessness, crime, and government overreach. Businesses are leaving. Families are leaving. The warning signs are everywhere. By almost every major indicator, Oregon is struggling under one-party control. And instead of voting for common sense, Democrats moved further left. In Washington County, Democrats elected one openly Democratic Socialist and another far-left, union-backed progressive who talks about corporate “fair share” taxes, standing against ICE, abortion access, data center moratoriums, and reshaping the economy around left-wing priorities. So here is the real question: What does this mean for the general election and for Oregon’s future? These are heavily Democratic districts, which means the real impact will likely be felt in Salem. As more lawmakers from the Democratic Party’s progressive and socialist wings join the Legislature, the pressure on Democratic leadership to move even further left will only grow. We keep hearing this is the year for Republicans. Maybe it is. But Republicans better understand something: Democrats are not slowing down. They are not moderating. They are not apologizing. They are doubling down. The left is organizing. The unions are organizing. The socialist wing is organizing. If Oregon Republicans think this state changes direction by sitting back and hoping voters figure it out on their own, we are mistaken. Oregon is at a crossroads. Either we fight for common sense, working families, parental rights, affordable living, public safety, and freedom or we watch the radical left take this state even further down the road it is already on. The warning signs are no longer subtle. The Legislature is poised to move even further left. I do not believe enough Oregonians or elected leaders truly see the writing on the wall. The question now is simple: Will they wake up, change course, and fight hard? Or will they keep compromising while Oregon keeps bleeding?

Memorial Day is not Veterans Day. Veterans Day is when we thank those who served and came home. Memorial Day is when we pause to remember the ones who did not. For me, this day is personal. I have lost people I served with. I remember their faces, their names, their families, and the sacrifices they made for this country. Today is not about sales, barbecues, or a long weekend. It is about honoring the men and women who gave their lives so the rest of us could live free. May we never forget the ones who are no longer here.

After Obamacare passed, Oregon Democrats followed suit by building their own Medicaid experiment: the CCO system. The promise was simple: health care would become cheaper, more coordinated, and better for patients. Years later, Oregon families, hospitals, and doctors are living with the consequences. Instead of lowering the real cost of health care, Oregon Democrats created another layer of middlemen between the patient and the doctor. The state sends taxpayer dollars to CCOs, CCOs control the networks and payments, and hospitals and providers are left fighting for reimbursement while costs keep climbing. Then Oregon Democrats expanded Medicaid even further, turning the health care system into a catch-all social services program. Under Oregon’s Medicaid waiver, taxpayer-funded Medicaid benefits now include housing supports, nutrition supports, climate-related devices, outreach, and other “health-related social needs” benefits for certain OHP members, including people experiencing homelessness or at risk of homelessness. That means while hospitals are struggling, doctors are buried in red tape, and working families are paying higher premiums, Oregon Democrats are using the health care system to fund services that go far beyond traditional medical care. And after all of that, who seems to come out ahead? The CCOs. Patients still struggle to get appointments. Doctors still fight red tape. Hospitals still absorb underpaid care. Working families still pay more. But the CCO system keeps growing, keeps controlling the money, and keeps inserting itself between the taxpayer, the patient, and the provider. Oregon Democrats did not fix health care with CCOs. They shifted the pressure onto hospitals, doctors, employers, and working families while protecting the middlemen. The problem is not just lack of funding. The problem is a government-designed system that keeps growing, keeps costing more, and keeps pushing the damage downstream, while the CCOs benefit from managing the money.

VOTE NO! On M120

People say they want the truth, until the truth exposes their favorite candidate. They complain about politicians, bad votes, backroom deals, lies, backstabbing, and ugly behavior, right up until those facts point at the person they support. People say they hate the system, until the system protects their candidate. Then suddenly, you are not supposed to call out another Republican, because doing so would expose how their candidate acts in public and behind closed doors. Then the problem is not the conduct. The problem is the person willing to call it out. That tells you everything.
