A few days ago, Donald Trump said he will send the military to Portland. It's a dangerous and illegal abuse of power and yet another attack on the First Amendment.

Watch my interview with MSNBC: "Rep. Bonamici on Trump’s threat to deploy troops to Portland: 'He’s either lying or he’s delusional'"

Portlanders showed up and said loud and clear: we reject federal and military occupation. We don't want them here, and we don't need them here.

Oregon is home, not a military target. Portland is not "war-ravaged' or "under siege," as he falsely claims. It's a beautiful city full of compassionate, hard-working people. This is a manufactured crisis by the Trump administration.

If Trump really wants to help Oregon, he should reinstate wrongfully fired federal employees and send the funding for schools, housing, and infrastructure that he's wrongfully blocked.

We will keep fighting back against these authoritarian actions at every turn. If you would like to join us, please consider making a contribution to my campaign.

We must win back the House and put a check on this rogue administration. We are not backing down.

Thank you for standing with me,

Suzanne
