SNAP benefits should have never been taken away. I am thankful SNAP benefits have returned, but my work does not stop here. I will continue fighting the cruelty of the Trump administration. #SNAP #MultCoD1

Today I voted for Multnomah County to distribute $100,000 in emergency funds to assist families who have lost #SNAP benefits. These funds will go to local organizations working tirelessly to provide assistance to our community. If you are in need of food assistance, visit multco.us/food

Food banks aren’t a substitute for SNAP — the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program.

1 in 5 Multnomah County residents will lose SNAP benefits November 1st. Our neighbors are scared they will not be able to feed their families. President Trump can and should release contingency funds that guarantee SNAP benefits. Fund #SNAP now. Anything less is cruelty. #MultCoD1

Late tonight, a federal judge issued a sweeping new order prohibiting the president from deploying any National Guard forces—from any state or DC—to Oregon. The president cannot keep playing whack-a-mole with different states’ Guard units to get around court orders and the rule of law.

I'm so delighted to see the launch of @eastportlandvoice.bsky.social - a new publication covering East Portland! And how great is it to read their story on Parkrose Coffee Shop, one of my favorite new SD 23 businesses: https://www.eastportlandvoice.org/a-coffee-shop-for-five-neighborhoods/

Check out my newsletter to get an update why thousands of people are fighting for Preschool for All. mailchi.mp/00184ed31f9c...

When Salem lawmakers moved to gut Multnomah County’s preschool tax, program supporters jumped to its defense. Their efforts seem to mitigated the immediate risks, but county leaders and program advocates are staying alert to potential new threats.

"The cost of preschool on working families is crushing. I have a preschooler. As of September, I'll be paying $1750 per month." Emergency trip to Salem to testify in opposition to SB 106-3, which would kill local preschools and have devastating effects on our current and future workforce.

Earlier this afternoon I was proud to be joined by @multco.bsky.social board colleagues @meghanmoyer.bsky.social, @shannonsingleton.bsky.social, @vincejonesdixon.bsky.social as we stood united against this undemocratic attempt to kill Preschool for All by the State Legislature.

☀️PLEASE SHARE: This weekend is slated to be the warmest so far, with the hottest days on Sunday & Monday. Early season heat events are more severe because our bodies have not yet acclimated to the heat. Follow this advice from Dr. Richard Bruno, @multcohealth.bsky.social Officer. MORE: multco.us/hot
