This family cut their energy bill in half! Thanks to weatherization upgrades and a new heat pump, the Jarrett family went from paying more than $400 to around $200. It was great to celebrate with a ribbon cutting at their home in #Salem!

RT @WaysMeansCmte: Trump has waged an illegal war for 8 months. Here’s how much Republicans’ rubber-stamping has cost you in that time: 🔺 Over $800 more on gas alone. 🔺 Over $2,000 more overall.

RT @samhsagov: It's spooky season! 🎃 👻 If you're not feeling festive this season, that's okay. Help is always available if you or someone you know is struggling with #MentalHealth or substance use. Help yourself and share to help others:

Our veterans had our backs. Now we must have theirs. I toured VETcare in #Salem, where veterans experiencing homelessness can find safe housing, life skills training, mental health services, and support to get back on their feet. Thank you for the tour and for everything you do for those who served!

As the proud daughter of a Mexican immigrant, I’m celebrating the voices of immigrants who make our country stronger this #NationalImmigrantsDay. I won’t stay silent as the Trump Admin cruelly targets and terrorizes our immigrant communities with disregard for our nation’s laws.

RT @WaysMeansCmte:

Prices for the “candy and chewing gum” category spiked 7.7 percent over the past year — more than twice the rate of overall inflation, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics. Rising prices are especially apparent for candies that include chocolate.

As the daughter of a police officer, I know the sacrifices our first responders make. First responders put their lives on the line to keep our communities safe, and I know the importance of supporting their mental health. I introduced a bill to do just that. #NationalFirstRespondersDay

RT @EqualityCaucus: #OTD in 2009, President @BarackObama signed the Matthew Shepard & James Byrd, Jr. Hate Crimes Prevention Act into law. As we celebrate 17 years since this momentous day, we also continue to work to combat hate & violence in all its forms.

I was honored to have met Dolores Huerta, and I am heartbroken by her passing. Her legacy will continue to inspire generations of Latinos and Americans to fight for positive change and push our nation toward progress.   Her courage, work, and story are forever woven into the fabric of America.

RT @KATUNews: It’s been eleven days since the deadly shooting at Silver Rail Elementary School in Bend, and the state is set to send more resources and support to help the community recover from the tragedy.

❌ $4,700: That’s how much extra the average Oregon family has paid for essentials under Trump. ❌ $2 billion: That’s how much Trump pocketed during the first year of his presidency alone. Trump’s economy is working for his and his billionaire buddies' families, not yours.

ATTN: We are one week from Election Day 🗳️ If you plan on mailing your ballot, today is the last recommended day to send it. After today, it's recommended to use an official ballot drop box, which are open 24/7 until 8 PM on November 3. Find a safe and secure drop box near you 🔗

📣 More than ONE MILLION Americans made it loud and clear that we must save the Roadless Rule to protect our public lands NOW. On a hike to Mirror Lake with Sierra Club, we talked about what’s at stake if Trump rips protections away from our lands, and how I’m working to safeguard them for good❗️

RT @RepMcClellan: Rural farmers and ranchers serve as the backbone of the American economy. Yet new farmers can face immense challenges getting their business off the ground. I joined @RepShontel and @RepSalinas to introduce the Farming Opportunities Training and Outreach Grant Program Reauthorization Act to preserve one of our nation’s most vital sectors by supporting beginning and underserved farmers.

Mass timber is strong, engineered wood that builds faster, lowers construction costs, and cuts carbon. It’s how PDX built its amazing new terminal! My new bipartisan bill would expand mass timber production — creating good-paying jobs and building more housing right in our #OR06 backyard.

This LGBTQI+ History Month, we celebrate the trailblazers, communities, and movements who have fought relentlessly for progress! Their legacy reminds us that the work is not done. As a vice chair of the @EqualityCaucus, I’ll keep fighting for a future where everyone can love freely and live authentically 🏳️‍🌈

LGBTQI+ history IS American history. #LGBTQIHistoryMonth

RT @HouseAgDems: Over 5 million Americans have been kicked off SNAP. These are our seniors, veterans, kids and working families, yet Trump and Republicans chose to take away their food.
