Changes to oil and gas permitting shouldn’t be rammed through on ‘must-pass’ legislation. These changes have big implications for our clean energy future and the health and environmental justice of frontline communities—they should be debated and voted on as a standalone package. https://t.co/VrGGsIkw2H — PolitiTweet.org

It’s not fair, it’s not right, and it’s fueling the housing crisis in Oregon and across the country. I introduced a bill to make sure that the housing in our communities is used as homes for people—not as a profit machine for Wall Street. — PolitiTweet.org

Know the feeling of outrage when you’re trying to get concert tickets and they’ve all been snapped up by bots and resellers who are then selling them at exorbitant prices? That's what's happening with our housing—hedge funds buy up homes, driving up purchase and rental prices. — PolitiTweet.org

A ban on slavery cannot come with an exception. We removed the exception in Oregon. Next step, we need to amend the U.S. Constitution. https://t.co/YYYanufsof — PolitiTweet.org

As we acknowledge the anniversary of the ratification of the 13th Amendment, we must also acknowledge the Slavery Exception that still allows for slavery "as a punishment for crime.” A huge and unacceptable loophole. https://t.co/ayeuw9eFtl — PolitiTweet.org

Reports of guards killing Tigrayan prisoners are heartbreaking. These kinds of war crimes must be punished aggressively. If peace agreements are to endure, all sides must commit to accountability. https://t.co/4wRYj5lUUw — PolitiTweet.org

I led an amicus brief in this case opposing weakening anti-discrimination laws, and I will continue to fight to pass strong, federal protections for LGBTQ+ Americans, including my Equality Act. I will never stop fighting for a more just and equal America. — PolitiTweet.org

No one should face discrimination or a door slammed in their face because of who they are or whom they love. Denying products or services on the basis of personal views, opinions, or religion has no place in our country. https://t.co/KxzDyhwnW0 — PolitiTweet.org

We’ve all been there: a medical emergency or a surprise car repair lands us with an unexpected bill. But that shouldn’t sentence you to an endless cycle of debt. Predatory payday lenders are a huge part of the problem—that’s why we need the SAFE Lending Act to protect consumers. — PolitiTweet.org

Access to gender-affirming health care saves lives. Unending attacks from MAGA politicians and pundits are splintering families, putting LGBTQ+ youth at risk, and forcing folks out of their communities. https://t.co/rN4RoOKn9V — PolitiTweet.org
