John –

Today, House Republicans passed their Big Bogus Bill into law – a tax giveaway to billionaires and corporations paid for off the backs of working families in Oregon and across the country.

This disgraceful bill will kick millions of Americans off Medicaid, add trillions of dollars to our national debt, close down rural hospitals, and it does nothing to help you.

To be clear: this is nothing but a political act by MAGA Republicans, which will result in taking money and resources away from you and giving them to their richest supporters.

I voted no today alongside every other House Democrat.

Every single Republican who voted yes chose to take health insurance and vital food programs away from kids – and they'll have to answer for it.

We need opportunities, support, and resources to thrive. We need good-paying union jobs, and the ability to buy an affordable home in good neighborhoods with good schools.

That's what I'm fighting for as your Congresswoman.

We cannot cut, neglect, or disinvest our way to the top. Either we invest in families, workers, and communities, or we let the rich get richer while the rest are left behind.

I will never compromise my support for working families, and I'm proud to vote down this terrible bill.

Val
