Releasing the Epstein files is about making sure our justice system serves the public, not the powerful and well-connected.

Unionized Starbucks workers have been trying to negotiate a contract with Starbucks since 2023—it should not take that long. Every union worker deserves an ethical and fair contract.

After my office’s first Youth Advisory Council meeting, the message was crystal clear: our youth are done waiting for change. I’m proud to set the table for their ongoing input and counsel to bring true change to our community.

As the first pulmonologist in Congress, take it from me: early detection saves lives. This Lung Cancer Awareness Month, I'm encouraging those with risk factors to talk with their trusted physician about getting screened. I'll keep fighting for the affordable, accessible care you deserve.

Jena-Lisa Jones was only 14 when she was taken. She deserves justice.

The American people deserve the truth.

I voted to release the Epstein files. The Senate must do the same.

Trump says he supports the House vote to release the Epstein files. That’s odd because he has the authority to just release them all RIGHT NOW. Why isn’t he?

If you can't stand on facts and science, you don't belong anywhere near the Department of Health and Human Services. RFK Jr. has got to go.

Oregonians deserve more than the status quo—they deserve a government that is obsessed with serving working families. That’s how I am approaching my work in Congress.

Speaker Mike Johnson kept the House on vacation for WEEKS to avoid swearing in Congresswoman Grijalva, all because her signature would have forced a vote to release the Epstein files. Today she was finally sworn in.

After a 54-day paid vacation, House Republicans are finally back at work.

It’s devastating that they are back just to rubber-stamp a funding deal that does nothing to make healthcare more affordable for working families.

The ‘deal’ that passed out of the Senate last night was an insult to the American people. I’m headed back to DC to hold the line for your healthcare.

Calling what’s coming out of the Senate a ‘deal’ is an insult. It’s caving on millions of people’s healthcare, putting a bow on it, and calling it compromise.

The rule of law has been upheld, not the whims of a wannabe king. Today a federal judge issued a permanent injunction against the National Guard being deployed in Portland. This affirms what we’ve always known: Portland is home. Not a military target.

I caught up with Attorney General Dan Rayfield in DC after his team argued against Trump’s illegal tariffs at the Supreme Court. He breaks down what’s at stake in the case and where we go from here.

House Democrats believe that in the richest country in the world, no one should go hungry. Trump clearly doesn't share that value.

Today, Attorney General Dan Rayfield's team went before the Supreme Court to fight Trump's lawless tariffs. Their fight is our fight. Oregon is showing up to defend working people and the Constitution.
