Oregon Open Letters

From a verified voter in Beaverton, OR

Blue states should pass laws now to protect against election interference and subversion this November. 1. Ban third-party voter challenges and other forms of vigilantism. States must prohibit anyone — including the federal government — from challenging a person’s voter registration or right to vo

Make good on your promise

We are on the eve of once again springing forward and I write to remind you that the people of Oregon chose to stop participating in this pointless ritual. The time changes are disruptive and damaging to our health. It is time you make good on your promises and cease the annual daylight savings ti

Remove Pam Bondi immediately

I am writing to urge the immediate removal of Pam Bondi from her position. Any official who enables, shields, or minimizes the abuse of children has no place in public service, and continued protection of such figures is morally indefensible. I expect you to act decisively to uphold accountability a

END I.C.E. NOW!

No DHS funding. Full stop. They are liars. They will promise warrants, due process, & accountability, then not deliver on any of it. They will keep murdering American citizens! No funding, WHAT SO EVER!

HJR 140: Protect the Boundary Waters from Toxic Mining

I’m calling to urge the Senator to oppose the house-passed House Joint Resolution 140 and protect the Boundary Waters. The Boundary Waters is America’s most visited Wilderness and a place I value. I want to see it, and all of our public lands in the headwaters, adequately protected from toxic copper

Release All Six Million Subpoenaed Epstein Documents Without Redaction

The Department of Justice's handling of the Epstein investigation documents represents a fundamental breach of congressional oversight authority and a betrayal of over 1,000 victims seeking accountability. Congress issued a lawful subpoena for six million documents, photographs, and videos from the

Demand Independent Investigation of Attorney General's Handling of Epstein Files

I am writing to urge you to support an independent investigation into Attorney General Pam Bondi's handling of the Jeffrey Epstein files and to hold the Department of Justice accountable for what appears to be a deliberate obstruction of transparency. The DOJ released over 3 million pages from the

From a verified voter in Tualatin, OR

Demanding that ICE comply with a protection that was present at the birth of our republic should be “non-negotiable.” If complying with the Constitution is an intolerable burden for ICE, it must be abolished and replaced with an agency that views the Constitution as its charter, not an obstacle.

From a constituent in Union, OR

Protect my right to vote!

I strongly oppose the SAVE Act, the MEGA Act, and the SAVE America Act. Any of these bills would cost a fortune to enact, disenfranchise millions of people, and throw our elections into chaos. They’re a so-called “solution” to a problem that simply does not exist. I want Representative Bentz to vote

Protect Social Security Benefits

I urge you to condemn the Social Security Administration workforce cuts, office closures, and service disruptions. I also urge you to oppose the Trump administration's proposal to no longer consider age when evaluating applications for disability benefits, which would disproportionately harm older A

Stop fascist election tampering NOW

The SAVE Act suite of bills is a dangerous step towards the disenfranchisement of millions of voters, with the end goal of keeping a fascist regime in power. The restrictions on voting proposed in these bills would disproportionately impact those who have changed their names upon marriage or for any

Rein in ICE

Do not fold or pass another Continuing Resolution if Republicans keep refusing to give in to our very reasonable and necessary demands on ICE. If the government has to partially shut down then it has to. There can be no more negotiating with people acting in bad faith. We will never get this leverag

It’s time to remove Donald Trump

It’s time to remove Donald Trump from office. With the multiple violations of the Constitution, his lying about his connection with Jeffrey Epstein, and his continued disregard for anyone who he considers disloyal to him are proof enough that he is not fit to serve. The corruption will continue if h

Support HB4125 to Restore Proportional Representation in Congress

I am writing to urge you to support HB4125, the Equal Voices Act, which would restore proportional representation in the House of Representatives by establishing a dynamic formula that sets the average number of constituents per Representative at 500,000. The House has not grown since 1911, despite

Bannon is all over the Epstein files and the public would benefit from his knowledge. Investigate him.

From a constituent in Beaverton, OR

John Phelan, current Secretary of the Navy, shows up in the Epstein files having flown twice on the the sex trafficker’s “Lolita Express” plane. Phelan, like many Trump appointees, has no background experience to bring to his current post. He’s best known as being a billionaire art collector enjoy

From a constituent in Beaverton, OR

Howard Lutnick should testify before congress regarding his association with deceased sex trafficker, Jeffrey Epstein. Foreign governments are holding Epstein associates accountable and so should we. It’s unacceptable that he should continue as Secretary of Commerce. Many innocent girls were bruta

Vote no on voter suppression

I understand that Republicans are trying to pass another voter suppression bill this week—this one is called the SAVE America Act (HR 7296). I strenuously oppose it. This bill, like the SAVE Act, will make it significantly harder, if not outright impossible, for millions of eligible voters to regist

No One Is Above the Law — Epstein Accountability Now

I am writing to urge you to personally review the unredacted Epstein files and to actively support any colleagues who are doing the same in pursuit of accountability and justice. The crimes associated with Jeffrey Epstein and his network were not only horrific — they represented a profound failure

Repeal the Self-Serving Senator Lawsuit Provision

I'm writing to demand the Senator both support AND loudly advocate for H.R. 6019, the House-passed bill to repeal the provision in the recent spending bill that allows senators to sue the US government for investigating their phone records.

Arrest of black journalists in Minnesota

Arrest of independent (and affiliated!) black journalists in Minneapolis is unacceptable and their immediate release must be sought any time this egregious breach of the law and injustice to our constitutional right to free press is violated.

Stop the Dismantling of Federal Education Programs and Workforce

Swickard OUT of Oregon Politics

It is public record that Jeff Swickard, owner of Swickard Auto, signed a letter to the Oregon Health Association that was full of misinformation about animal research to convince the group to lean on Oregon Health and Science University to close the Oregon National Primate Research Center.

Support S. 1498 - HONEST Act

I ask that the Senator support S. 1498, the HONEST Act, with an amendment to remove the carve-out that protects Trump and J.D. Vance. Elected officials and their family should not be allowed to trade individual stock, the potential for corruption and self-dealing is too great. Thank you for your ti
