Under Republican leadership, the Education and Workforce Committee has not held hearings this Congress on several issues affecting student mental health, including gun violence, housing, and food insecurity, and ICE raids. Next Congress our new majority will focus on issues that actually matter to students and their families.

Thank you to all of our veterans, past and present, for your bravery and dedication to the country and the Constitution. Happy Veterans Day!

Wishing a happy Diwali to all who celebrate! 🪔

The American people are counting on Congress to lower costs, raise wages, and stop corruption. I’m in this fight for a better future with my @Labor_Caucus colleagues and @AFLCIO President Liz Shuler. We have a lot to do next Congress. Let’s get to work!

I’m disappointed but not surprised that Republicans in Congress showed immense cowardice and dodged a vote to impeach Pete Hegseth. The American people are demanding change and a better, safer future. I will continue to push for Hegseth’s impeachment.

I will vote to impeach Pete Hegseth because of his abhorrent, illegal, and unconstitutional actions. He has carelessly and continually put American lives at risk. It must stop now.

Public dollars belong in public schools. Having the majority means we’ll be able to defeat the administration’s voucher scheme--which is sending public funds to private schools.

I’m back in DC and excited for our new majority. There’s a lot we can do to help working families when the new Congress starts! 💪

The new White House Chief of staff is Stephen Miller? Outrageous. He’s a white nationalist who has already pushed regressive, dangerous, and harmful policies. The American people just said no to this in a big way but Donald Trump doesn’t care what you think. I’m ready to hold the Trump Administration accountable for their lawlessness and corruption.

I joined @RepSalinas to speak with leaders of the Reading Battalion at Southridge High School. These dedicated teachers, administrators, and volunteers help students improve their reading proficiency. I’m thankful for their hard work.

I have been sounding the alarm about what the lack of child care means to student parents. This is a deliberate policy choice by the Trump administration and it is directly affecting the ability of students to stay in school. Child care, not gilded ballrooms, will fuel education and the economy. washingtonpost.com/education…

At Sen. Wyden's health care forum, one constituent told us that her insurance premium will go up 400% in 2027. That’s HALF of her family's take home pay. She's a cancer survivor and needs continual care. This is unacceptable. Oregonians deserve better.

Oregonians know that hazelnuts and seafood are some of the state’s most popular and delicious products. Our growers and producers work tirelessly and bolster the local economy. I’m glad the USDA is making this investment.

Thank you to my friends at Centro Cultural for the opportunity to celebrate Latina leadership. We honored the legacy of the legendary Dolores Huerta, who helped pave the way for many incredible Latina leaders, and celebrated phenomenal leaders in the region.

People across the country made their voices clear: they want change. I'm running to lead the Education and Labor Committee so we can save public education and meet this moment by lowering costs, rebuilding trust with working families, and holding the Trump administration accountable.

I introduced the Transforming Education for the Future Act to rebuild our system of public education to meet the moment. That means providing a well-rounded education to all students, supporting teaching and learning so students become critical thinkers, and addressing socioeconomic barriers. This is what we need for students, the economy, and democracy.

Thank you to everyone who joined us at Sen. Wyden’s Reimagining Health Care in America event in Astoria to tell your stories about our broken health care system. I will keep fighting to lower costs and improve health care.

I'm demanding an investigation into the ICE agents who slashed the tire of legal observers in Hillsboro. This is harassment, intimidation, retaliation, and a violation of the First Amendment.
