OR House Democrats

The 2026 session is done. We got real work done for Oregon families. House Democrats took steps to lower costs, protect schools and health care, & make housing more affordable. We also stood up for civil rights, privacy, and our immigrant communities. #orleg #orpol

Oregon Democrats today unveiled their plan for reclaiming state money that is due to be lost to the Trump tax cuts. This figures to be one of the more heated debates of the new legislative session. #orpol #orleg opb.org/article/2026/0…

Starting January 1, new Oregon laws will crack down on hidden fees, protect renters and workers, expand health care access, and strengthen personal safety. While chaos reigns nationally, Oregon Democrats are focused on delivering real relief for families here at home. #orleg

If you are interested in celebrating Rep. Nguyễn's life, her family has requested that folks send a donation to the David Douglas Education Foundation. You can donate with a "Donation in memory of Hoa Nguyen" memo at ddefforkids.org/donate.

Representative Hòa Nguyễn passed away this morning surrounded by loved ones after a courageous fight against cancer. She asked that this chapter of her life be remembered through the work of making Oregon a just, equitable, and compassionate place. #orleg #orpol

It doesn’t matter whether you’re a Republican or a Democrat — you should be worried when you hear the president say a judge should “work for him”. No judge should ever serve any politician. That’s not how the balance of powers works.

Every single one of these clips was taken today in downtown Portland. Portland doesn’t want or need a federal takeover. If Trump insists on sending federal “resources” he can start with funding health care, bridges, affordable housing, and wildfire protection to name a few.

We walked through the legal grounds for our case today on Morning Joe. #orpol #nationalguard

LAWSUIT UPDATE: NATIONAL GUARD IN PORTLAND. We just filed a motion for a temporary restraining order to block the unlawful federalization of National Guard. Read for more.

As of 2pm today - less than 6 hours after receiving formal notice that the President had federalized Oregon’s National Guard in Portland - we filed a lawsuit. The president has overstepped his authority. #portland #nationalguard #orpol

Contrary to President Trumps social media posts, Portland is not war ravaged. There is no insurrection. There is no threat to national security.

Today, we’re announcing a new Immigration Services and Support Resources toolkit that addresses FAQs about ICE and legal rights, and provides links to services for immigrant and refugee communities. Check it out at the link in bio. #orpol #knowyourrights

And that's a wrap! 🎉

When private equity owns your doctor, you pay MORE for WORSE care. Their priority is profit. @GovTinaKotek just signed into law the strongest protections against corporate profiteering in health care. Congress should follow and get private equity out of health care nationwide.

Oregon House Republicans confirm they made $50 million goof when dismissing need for transportation tax hike oregonlive.com/politics/2025/…

In 100 days, Trump's policies have already harmed Oregonians. House Democrats are doing everything we can to fight back. It's time to hold this administration accountable & demand a future that uplifts all Americans. #Trump100Days

I spoke out against reckless federal layoffs. A day later, the Administration moved to cut 80K VA jobs. 🛑 80000 families struggling to pay bills. 🛑 80000 public servants—many veterans—discarded. I won’t stay silent. We must stand up for workers and veterans. #OrLeg #OrPol

The bill would prohibit the sale of precise location data, strengthen data minimization requirements and safeguard consumer privacy.

Rep. Chotzen knows that Oregonians deserve strengthened data privacy laws as companies continue to profit off of our most personal information. That’s why he’s the Chief Sponsor of HB 3899.
