The pandemic clearly fueled absenteeism, no question. But Oregon is WAY off national norms (22%). That's way too high, but holy crap, Oregon's at 150% of the national rate...

Oregon has less mandatory instruction than most states, which is the crux of the coverage.
Crazy-high abseneeism, tho.

Gasp.
What is going on, Oregon??
"Oregon’s rate of chronic absence reached a stunning peak of 38 percent in 2022–23, only falling to 33.5 percent by 2024–25 (compared with a national average of 22 percent the same year)."

With the 5th Circuit ruling #DACA unlawful, it’s critical we are active and vocal in supporting DREAMers & DACA recipients.
In a Q&A with @FWDus' Eddie Taveras, we discuss the impacts of removing DACA and provide resources for those looking to support.

We are experiencing the impacts of climate change: wildfires, drought, flooding & heatwaves.
@ChristineDrazan & @SenBetsyJohnson have sided with corporate polluters over our communities.
I am the only candidate who will protect our clean air & water for future generations.

Over two years ago I called for a homelessness state of emergency.
Meanwhile @ChristineDrazan and @SenBetsyJohnson only offer platitudes and snarky comments.
With my track record, we will help folks off the streets, tent by tent.

Both @ChristineDrazan and @SenBetsyJohnson are too right right-wing for Oregon

I learned how to fight for what’s right from my dad, who sacrificed everything for me & my sister. Now I am running for Congress to make sure my daughter & her generation have a stronger future. When I get to DC, I will continue to deliver for Oregon working families. #OR06
