Protect the USPS!

Ellen Rosenblum     John, Over the last few weeks the Trump administration has made it abundantly clear that they are willing to cut funding to the United States Postal Service in order to help themselves politically. This is unacceptable. The lack of competence and leadership from Trum…

So much is at stake for our teachers

Ellen Rosenblum     John, While Oregon's teachers are a tremendous source of inspiration to so many of us, they deserve so much more. This was true before the COVID-19 pandemic. It is true now. It will be true once we've recovered. My message here is simple: I stand with Oregon's teach…

Sign the petition: Help us save the USPS

what a month

Ellen Rosenblum     John, Last week, I reached out to share some of Ellen's work. She's stood in Trump's way as he attempted to curtail Oregonians' basic rights. She continued to hold polluters and bad actors accountable for their impact on our environment. And she remained steadfast co…

They keep attacking affordable health care. We'll keep fighting.

Great news from the Supreme Court this morning!

Ellen Rosenblum     John, The Supreme Court struck down a draconian Louisiana abortion law – a totally unnecessary restriction that would have required doctors who perform abortions in clinics to have admitting privileges at nearby hospitals. If the law had been upheld, it would have re…
