@salinas.house.govToday is National Coming Out Day! I'm proud to stand with LGBTQI+ Oregonians and celebrate the courage it takes to live openly and authentically. Nobody should have to live in fear because of who they are, who they love, or how they identify 🏳️🌈

@salinas.house.govU.S. citizens should not have to worry about being detained by Trump's lawless ICE and CBP agents. I have a bill that would allow citizens the right to sue the Trump Admin when they are unlawfully detained. Sadly, Republicans will continue to greenlight this recklessness instead of passing my bill.
@salinas.house.govTrump's billionaire buddies are getting richer and richer thanks to his BIG UGLY BILL 🤢 Meanwhile, families are struggling to put food on the table and gas in their cars. Trump’s economy only works for the extremely wealthy and leaves hardworking Americans struggling.

@housedemocrats.bsky.socialReposted by @salinas.house.govTrump promised to cut your utility bill in half. He's done the exact opposite. Your energy bills will be even HIGHER because of Trump and Republicans' costly agenda.
