Pretty great write up. I love the Blazers. That doesn't mean our state should get ripped off in this deal.

I've created an interactive precinct-level map of Oregon's contested state legislative races in the 2024 election cycle. It compares legislative margins to the presidential race, as well as vote drop off from presidential to downballot. Enjoy! andrewdamitio.github.io/portland-spl...

The Trump administration is trying to make it easier for Big Tech to build a data center in your backyard to pollute your air and drinking water. We need strong, comprehensive legislation to crack down on the chaos data centers are causing in our communities and I'm working to get it done.

Trump doesn't care about you or your housing costs.

Ever have a day where you're in a blah mood, and then you ride your bike? Yeah, good stuff.

Oregon has voted by mail for almost 30 years. It's safe, it's secure, and it works. I will always protect it.

Donald Trump is a racist.

The 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act is making national headlines. 🏘️ The Daily from the @nytimes.com explores why this bipartisan housing bill passed Congress with overwhelming support, why it's still awaiting a signature, and what comes next. 🔗 Learn more here: www.nytimes.com/2026/07/06/p...

I suppose a task force won't hurt but we know what needs to happen -- you need some way to overcome parochial utility & state incentives, bypass endless environmental reviews & procedural hurdles, & properly allocate costs. It's just difficult.

Evergreen skeet the last three weeks. 👇

Soccer is great, we tried, good night

Belgiums jerseys are ugly there I said it

there are very few jobs in the world where you can disappear for weeks without providing an explanation, and "member of congress" should not be one of them, imo

Office hours and emails at Bend Brewing until 5pm, at which time I will be locked in tyvm Let's gooooo 🇺🇸⚽

Democrats and Republicans came together to pass the biggest investment in housing in 30 years. Trump is single-handedly holding it up. SIGN THE BILL!

We passed bipartisan legislation to lower housing costs. Families are still waiting for it to become law.

Play the Jaws music when Haaland is anywhere near the area, JEEZ

Up to Seattle to defend concacaf honor

A $3 @mta.info subway fare and some good Q train timing can buy you one hell of a view of the July 4th fireworks and the Brooklyn Bridge light show! Huge shoutout to the train operator for slow rolling over the Manhattan Bridge and the conductor for announcing it.

Nothing says #July4 like a big juicy slice of watermelon. An average watermelon weighs 15 - 20 pounds. Can you imagine harvesting them in a 100°+ Riverside County field like these workers who formed a human chain of picking and passing the watermelons to the trailer? #WeFeedYou

Happy Fourth of July! At Oregon DOJ, we’re working every day to fight for working families, keep our communities safe, and uphold Oregon’s laws and values. We look forward to the next 250 years of that work. Wishing everyone a safe and celebratory day! #orpol

Happy 4th of July! As we celebrate the 250th anniversary of America, let’s focus on the values that bring us together: liberty, justice, and opportunity for ALL. Let us continue to work toward those ideals together.

Today I'm thinking about how we continue to fight for our liberties, resist tyranny & bullies, and organize to ensure this great experiment in democracy can continue to grow and deliver for all our nation's people. I believe in us. Happy Interdependence Day!

If you’re conflicted about the weekend’s celebrations, I understand. But the truth is this: This isn’t Trump’s 250th. This is America’s 250th. And to me, that means a celebration of and recommitment to a founding ethos that we’ll never bow down to a king or accept tyranny against our neighbors.

As America marks 250 years, may we recommit to building a diverse democracy, an economy that works for the many and not just the few, and a future where every generation has the opportunity to live a dignified life. Happy 4th of July!

Happy Independence Day, Oregon. 250 years ago, our founders put us on a new path, one that rejected kings and placed the power with the people. That right is at the heart of who we are as a nation, and that's why I'm committed to defending it.

America is done being divided. As one team, we’re unstoppable. Happy Fourth of July!

Happy Fourth of July, Oregon! Today, we celebrate our freedoms and the people who make both America and Oregon so special. Loving your country means showing up for your community. It means protecting our freedoms, supporting our neighbors, and working to build a better future together.

Today I'm thinking about liberty and justice for all and how we'll keep striving to get there. Throwing off tyrants is in our country's DNA. Let's be with friends and family today in celebration of our community and our care for each other. Happy Independence Day! See you at the pet parade! 🐶🇺🇸

While this is good news, my advice to voters has not changed: don’t wait. Vote early and use an official drop box. If you have to return your ballot by mail, do it at least a week before Election Day, especially if you live 50+ miles from Portland. More: https://bit.ly/4favEYm

Good morning I’m still pissed about the red card

FOUND A WAY THROUGH!

Let's GOOOO USMNT!!

USMNT > SCOTUS

Right in front of my FOURTH OF JULY??

It’s all on the line tonight! Rooting for @usmnt.ussoccer.com! Let’s go Team USA!

Okay IDK why Russell Crowe is coaching USMNT but I'm here for it

The Birthright citizenship ruling should be a wake up call to any Dem who is still on the fence about court reform. We are essentially one seat change away from the Court undoing Reconstruction by fiat.

anyway i think the proper takeaway here is that a bare majority of the court thinks the plain words of the 14th amendment mean what they say, that four members believe there is a secret hidden meaning only recently discovered by hack lawyers

The fact that it wasn't 9-0 is a damn shame. This case asked "do words have meaning?" 3 said no.

Stood with the Governor today to talk about the results of our state and local collaboration: a 20% reduction in unsheltered homelessness this year. Bend's leadership has helped us get here. We'll keep working with service providers and building the homes we need to get more people housed.

Guy living in subsidized government housing doesn't care about anyone struggling with housing costs

The top issue for my constituents is housing affordability. It's crushing people across the nation. Local govts and states are trying to do something about it, and Congress actually passed bipartisan legislation to help. Trump doesn't care.

Five days ago, Democrats and Republicans came together to pass a housing bill. Five days later, it’s still sitting on the President’s desk. People’s lives aren’t a game. Sign the damn bill.

Been busy mayoring and doing background campaign work since my announcement. Thank you everyone for your support so far! ❤️ Working on a launch party later this summer - stay tuned and sign up for campaign emails to stay in the loop: eepurl.com/g4c9J5

JD Vance made up a horrific and racist lie about a group of people, and now those people will be deported because the Supreme Court refuses to acknowledge, let along regard as disqualifying, the clear racial bias of this administration.
