The secret’s out: I now make sourdough.

Jokes aside, I really appreciate the WW team and the Oregon Journalism Project recently taking the time to ask questions about my time as AG so far. It’s an honor to serve Oregonians!

Governor Kotek has consistently stood up for Oregonians and the values we share. We’ve worked side by side against harmful federal actions, including opposing troop deployment in Portland. She’s the partner I need to continue this fight, and I am proud to support her re-election.
As your Governor, I’ve never been prouder to work for you - and with you. But the fight isn’t over. I’m running for reelection because Oregon values are on the line.

Thankful for so much, but after our meal, we are incredibly thankful for the family dish pre-wash.

My dad was a colonel in the Air Force Reserve, and I’ve seen his service, dedication, and leadership throughout my life.

This Veterans Day, I’m grateful for my dad and the lessons he taught me — and for all those who serve our country in uniform.

We just got a huge win for Oregonians - and a check on the president's power: we received a ruling preventing the president from deploying the National Guard on the streets of our cities.

No one - not even the president - is above the law.

BREAKING NEWS: We just secured a final court order blocking National Guard deployment!

Today's ruling is a huge victory for Oregon. The courts are holding this administration accountable to the truth and the rule of law.

Trump is saying other countries will pay for his tariffs, but HIS OWN LAWYERS are telling the Supreme Court the opposite.

According to White House lawyers, American families will front 30-80% of these costs. Ridiculous and reckless. @agdanrayfield.bsky.social

On Wednesday, the Supreme Court heard Dem AGs’ arguments about Trump’s harmful tariffs and the illegal way he has gone about imposing them.

We just presented our case at the U.S. Supreme Court — these tariffs are an illegal abuse of emergency power that’s harming working families across our country.

Oregon Solicitor General Ben Gutman joins to talk about how it went.

Ever wondered how to explain tariffs to Gen Z? I recently laid it out for Gov. Beshear (and his teenagers) — just in time for Oregon to take our tariffs case to the Supreme Court on November 5.

What topic should we translate next?!

LAWSUIT UPDATE RE: NATIONAL GUARD IN PORTLAND: The Ninth Circuit just paused the three-judge panel’s order on our first TRO until Tuesday so they can complete their en banc vote.

This means for now, both our TROs preventing National Guard deployment remain in effect.

We are standing with Planned Parenthood in the legal fight against unlawful defunding.

In Oregon, Planned Parenthood health centers provide care through more than 100,000 patient visits each year - nearly 70% of which are for patients covered by Medicaid.

We will urge the *full* Ninth Circuit to vacate today’s decision by a three-judge panel, before illegal Guard deployments can occur. A Ninth Circuit judge has already called for a vote on whether the case should be heard by the full court. Our team will file a brief encouraging the court to do so.

Today across our state, Oregonians are standing up for our shared values of freedom and justice for all.

Be peaceful, be vocal, and get creative with those signs!

Go to law school, they said. You’ll have job security, they said. I never expected to use my law degree to file so many lawsuits against the president… but you’ve gotta follow the law, whoever you are.
