I’m contacting you in support of the environment and environmental protections, and in opposition to the Trump regime’s attack on both.

Freedom of speech is foundational to our democracy. Rümeysa Öztürk, Mahmoud Khalil, Mohsen Mahdawi and other student activists who have been unconstitutionally jailed for their words need to be freed at once. I know you have been outspoken about this issue. Please continue to do everything possible
From a verified voter in Portland, OR4/24Hegseth Must Go
Pete Hegseth is a national security risk. His own former spokesman has said he’s creating “total chaos” at the Pentagon. He’s unstable, he’s incompetent, he’s putting our servicemembers at risk, and he never should have been confirmed in the first place. If you haven’t already, please call for him t
From a verified voter in Portland, OR4/22Protect the Clean Energy Tax Cuts
The clean energy tax credits in the Inflation Reduction Act are being targeted in the current budget negotiations to cover the costs of the Trump-Musk tax scam. Your office needs to do what they can to protect them. What’s being proposed is a tax hike that would raise family energy bills. NERA Consu
From a verified voter in Gresham, OR4/22Stand up to 47!
Trump is guilty of dereliction of his sworn duty to uphold the Constitution. By behaving like an autocratic dictator and disobeying the lawful order of our Supreme Court, he has become an enemy of that Constitution. Congress must end this before it goes further. Trump has already spoken of his inte
From a verified voter in Portland, OR4/21Thank you for Going to El Salvador!
Thank you for going to El Salvador! This trip feels to me like vitally important work—for its humanitarian and human-rights value for this man and the people who love him, but also because this case is the sharp cutting edge of the Trump regime’s attempt to cut to ribbons the rule of law. I am proud

From a verified voter in Portland, OR4/18Cosponsor HR 1876 and 1877. Protect SSA
I’m writing because I’m deeply concerned about the Trump administration’s attacks on Social Security. DOGE is cutting staff at an alarming rate, field offices are being closed, the SSA is insisting they’ll only communicate using Elon Musk’s vanity platform X, and we’re already starting to see alarmi
From a verified voter in Portland, OR4/17Please Defend Americorps
I am upset about the DOGE attack on Americorps, a program that allows caring young people to spend a year volunteering in some of our nation’s most vulnerable communities. Like everything DOGE does, it makes no sense to cut such a program, if good government and a healthy society are the goal. Those

Defying the Supreme Court by sending people to concentration camps. Criminalizing anyone who disagrees with the government. I'm terrified that we are already too far gone, that our system is already non-functional. If there was ever a time to make a big stand, to throw everything you have at it, thi

I’m writing to demand that Kilmar Abrego-Garcia be brought back to the U.S. immediately. What’s happened to him at our hands is sickening and deeply unjust. Congress must intervene. The claim that the Trump administration lacks the power or authority to bring Abrego-Garcia back is simply false. Pas
From a verified voter in Portland, OR4/16Delegation to El Salvador?
I am extremely distressed by the abduction and unlawful deportation to a torture prison of Kilmar Abrego Garcia and over 200 other immigrants who have been denied due process. Trump’s absurd claim that he has no power to bring Abrego home, in defiance of the Supreme Court’s order that he do so, is w

From a constituent in Portland, OR4/15IMPEACH. Trump has defied and defiled rule of law — we can’t allow this.
It’s time to impeach. If we won’t stop Trump from defying the Supreme Court and allow him to kidnap and send innocent people to prisons in other countries with no due process (which is the definition of a concentration camp), then the rule of law in this country is finished and none of us are safe.

From a constituent in Portland, OR4/10There has to be controls on what is allowed for Congress when it comes to personally owning stocks. I don’t want to keep those in service from being afforded to opportunity to save and plan for their retirement, AND it is not okay for members to engage in laws while working with finances.

From a constituent in Portland, OR4/10Rein in destructive tariff wars threatening US economy
These sweeping tariffs imposed by the Trump administration are causing severe economic turmoil and represent a drastic overhaul of long-standing trade policies. Hitting over $2 trillion worth of imports with dramatic tax hikes will push effective tariff rates in the US to the highest level in over a
From a verified voter in Portland, OR4/8Stop Trump's destructive tariffs
Congress has the constitutional authority to regulate trade through tariffs and should exercise oversight over the president's use of this power. Maintaining a proper system of checks and balances is crucial for a healthy democracy. The president's ongoing trade war and unilateral imposition of tari
From a verified voter in Portland, OR4/7Oppose all appropriations for mass deportation and detention camps
Mass deportation will have immense costs for our friends and family, our communities and our economy. As advocates are now admitting, it will also have a huge price tag just to execute. The White House has suggested they’ll need more than $86 billion in appropriations just to start, and the American
From a constituent in Portland, OR4/4The proposed ban on purchasing certain items like sodas and chips with SNAP benefits is misguided. Many low-income families live in food deserts with limited access to healthy options. Restricting their ability to afford any available food, even if not perfectly nutritious, would be detrimental and
From a verified voter in Portland, OR4/4No on the JUDGES Act, the PEPPER Act, and the NORRA Act
I oppose all efforts to delegitimize court orders, threaten judges, and erode constitutional safeguards. These things fundamentally threaten American democracy. The fact that Republican congressmembers are now attempting to codify these authoritarian power grabs disgusts me. I want you to vote NO o

The president announced his new tariff plans today and I want to remind Congress that it’s actually not the president’s role to enact tariffs. They must be approved by Congress.

From a constituent in Portland, OR4/2Be like Mr. Booker and say this is wrong.

From a constituent in Portland, OR4/1Don’t let food bank aid get cut!
I read today that the Federal government is reducing its aid to the Oregon Food Bank by nearly 20 percent. It is unacceptable to fund tax cuts while cutting food aid to our poorest citizens. Please, make some noise about this in Congress — I believe it is a nationwide issue.
From a verified voter in Portland, OR3/31No on NORRA
I’m writing to express my strong opposition to H.R. 1526, the No Rogue Rulings Act (“NORRA”). If passed, NORRA would destabilize the checks and balances built into our constitutional system, putting the freedom of every American at risk. NORRA would sharply limit federal district courts’ ability to

Hours ahead of the US attack on the Houthis, Pete Hegseth texted the timeline of the planned attack to 17 people on a Signal chat - one of whom turned out to be the Editor of the Atlantic, Jeffrey Goldberg. At the end of his “team update,” Hegseth wrote “We are ’urrently clean on OPSEC.” The incomp
