    Today is a beautiful day across the city of Portland. I decided to go down to the ICE facility and see what things look like for myself. As you can see from the video, it’s not the war zone that Trump describes. #orpol #portland #oregon #releasetheepsteinfiles #trumplies

    My 2nd time this week getting pulled over while leaving Salem. Both times the officers ran my plates, checked me for warrants and then let me go without giving me a ticket. If I had an outstanding warrant, I’d be in jail. SMH

    Wow! Can you imagine if Ketanji Brown Jackson did this? Republican heads would be exploding and they’d be ready to hang her from a burning cross. Thomas should be impeached if these allegations are true.

    THANK YOU to all who voted for me and supported my campaign! Tonight history was made when I became the first LGBTQ+ man of color to be ELECTED to Oregon legislature! I look forward to breaking more glass ceilings and continuing the fight for the people of N & NE Portland.

    I’m glad that Ballot Measure 112 passed. That said, there needs to be much deeper conversation and analysis on why 45% of Oregonians voted NO on removing slavery references from the Oregon constitution. #OrPol #Orleg #BlackLivesMatter #Oregon #slavery

    Oregon is the most pro choice state in the country. Tina Kotek pulled out a victory in Oregon because Oregon voters don’t trust Drazan on reproductive rights. It’s going to be hard for a pro-life R to win statewide in Oregon in a post-Roe country. #ReproductiveRights

    I know there’s a lot of disappointment with the national outcome amongst Democrats. However, here in Oregon, Democrats expanded our legislative majority, flipped a congressional seat & swept every statewide race. Thanks to the voters for putting your trust in us! #orpol #orleg

    We did our part, Oregon. Democrats will return to the Oregon State House with a strong majority. #orleg #orpol

    Oregon should eliminate the kicker for anyone making more than $250,000/year. Or any couple making more than $400,000/year. #Oregon #orpol #orleg

    Woke up and made a bee line to the strike line. Portland teachers deserve a fair contract that ensures safe schools and compensation that allows for them to provide for their families. #strike @PPSConnect #teachers

    Seems many of us overreacted on election night. That Trump landslide we saw on election night has evaporated into a 1 point win. Trump is going to get less than 50% of the popular vote. This is no mandate….. The national polls were right too, this was basically a tie.

    Yesterday I tweeted…. “Oregon should eliminate the kicker for anyone making more than $250,000/year. Or any couple making more than $400,000/year.” This photo shows why. Too many good programs are chronically underfunded. The wealthy should pay more. #Oregon #orpol #orleg

    Standing on the picket line with Fred Meyer workers. They deserve safe working conditions & wages that allow for them to care for their families. They are on strike until Tuesday!✊🏾 #UnionStrong #WorkersRights #orpol #Union @ufcw555 @UFCW
