@repzachhudson.bsky.social is not only the coolest legislator there is, he’s just an incredible human being…AND an amazing dad (his kiddo was the other person on stilts with us)! #Portlandpride

That game was… not awesome, but tonight is perfect! Best part of being at Prov Park was all the kids running around playing their own match.

The world is kind of nuts but today I got to watch my 8lb 7oz tiny baby Z who I carried like a football graduate from college… and now he’s a giant huge-hearted human off to change the world and I couldn’t be prouder. (Also very amused that he’s so tall you have to click for full picture).

Happy Mother’s Day! In light of war, a return to the Jim Crow South, and those Epstein-file a$$holes still running free, your mom does not want flowers or brunch this year. She would like a reconciliation, a revolution of dignity and justice, and an end to war, for starters. Please and thank you.

Said shoutout. Sponsoring and carrying Universal Representation on the floor as a freshmen leg in 2021 remains one of the things I’m proudest of. So grateful the folks doing this work got recognized tonight!

Forgive me, but I am new to this bill as of its intro to Rules (despite being its apparent covergirl now). Was the journalism org that was part of the ongoing workgroup not considered representative? A quick google ask gave me this. I’m not trying to be glib, genuinely curious.

I love our city so much. Where else, in February, in the rain? The joy! The palpable, pulsing vibrant joy.

And although this is probably not healthy, I LOVE being the last out. The absolute stillness & hush of the rotunda at night. (I wish they’d let it go dark but I get it). It’s just… reverent. Being a floor manager (aka whip) easily adds an extra 2 hrs to my day. But it also gives me these moments.

Dacia Grayber @djgrayber.bsky.social · 13/02/2026

It’s short session, why am I not blue skeeting? It’s not for lack of want! My days start early, and I love that the rotunda is back open. There’s a gorgeous suspense to it first thing in the morning, before the echos of chatter and laughter and occasional singing. I love the early morning light.

See also, this: swing states with no automatic vote by mail that are trending blue. Terrorize, intimidate, manipulate. I’d be extra worried if I was PA (tho he has to keep Fetterman placated), NC, GA, OH, VA, for starters. This explains Maine.

The *epic* self-own in the last sentence of this statement by our “leading” R Gov candidate… is really something.

In all of this terrible, I’m reconciling that my cat pants days are dwindling. The old warrior is moving into his last days, stoic, noble, but extra cuddly. I relish every one of these quiet moments.

Holy. Shit. NWS Seattle issued a flash-flood alert due to possibility of Skagit River levee and dike failure. This is the map.

I have been dreading the holidays, the dull ache of Addison’s death acute and sharp this week. She loved making pies. I am not a pie person (I know, I know), but you better believe we have pies. I still can’t believe she’s not going to be standing in my kitchen, mocking my Gen X music tastes today.

Fight back. Join staff from Neighborhood House and I at 2pm today at the Multnomah Arts Center to build connection and support and uplift the incredible work being done in our community.

Let’s build community together with Neighborhood House and keep our neighbors fed. Sunday 11/9, 2-4pm, Multnomah Arts Center. The following Sunday (same time and place) we’ll be learning how to protect our immigrant neighbors. Strategize. Organize. Mobilize. And yes, there will be snacks.

Fascinating map of the impending SNAP cliff. The darker green counties (2 shades) are 20%+ SNAP- dependent households.

Would that perhaps look something like this?

A second TRO has been granted barring ANY federalized NG from coming into Oregon— unless conditions change. This is a monumental ruling in so many ways— and sets the stage for what comes next. Ie: if Trump obeys the rule of law and the courts. Stay peaceful. Stay Portland. 💕

Today was incredibly painful but healing to walk with the @afspnational.bsky.social Oregon in hopes that no family has to feel this pain. That starts with connection. Tomorrow needs you. In loving fierce memory of Addison. ❤️

You’re drunk, MAGA Barbies. We don’t want your drama. Go home.

I mean clearly the southwest antifa rebel base is absolutely purring tonight!

I am absolutely fascinated by this. What could possibly be so interesting directly above my neighborhood?

I was waiting until next week to give this to you as a belated birthday present. But here’s a spoiler because we could all use moments of joy:

World Suicide Prevention Day. Another school shooting. The murder of Charlie Kirk. At the end of the day— all we have is our humanity and our ability to foster connection. To bring all of it out of the dark. To heal.

Transportation Update thread: As my punny colleague Rep Nosse… “sometimes the road is messy.” No one wants to have to pass a tax vote, but that’s the work of governing, keeping our roads usable and our families safe. To do that in the most accountable and thoughtful way possible is the goal. (1/5)

Dacia Grayber @djgrayber.bsky.social · 29/06/2025

Some Republican colleagues are running around crowing about their “victory” defeating even the absolute bare minimum that would have prevented among other things these immediate layoffs of infrastructure and public safety workers. This is heartbreaking, heartless. and wholly preventable.

Someone sent me a screenshot of the front page of the PDF interactive @oregonian.com. Is this… real? DEWEY DEFEATS TRUMAN!

‼️ Update on SB 916: Unemployment Insurance for Striking Workers

Dacia Grayber @djgrayber.bsky.social · 13/06/2025

A HISTORIC WIN FOR WORKERS! Thank you to every single Oregon worker that testified, spoke in committee, called, & marched in support of SB 916. Thank you to those colleagues in the House and Senate who stood with me in support of the rights of workers to not starve while bargaining a fair contract.

Deploying US Troops against our own people is deeply un-American. Democrat, Republican, and everyone in between-- we can and should demand better.

Last night I had the honor of serving as one of five judges for @literaryarts.bsky.social Verselandia! high school poetry slam competition, and you know what? The kids are not only okay, they are unbelievably talented, passionate, and unapologetically fearless. And no, I wasn’t the mean judge 😉.

Over 3 million people, all ages, all walks of life, took to the streets yesterday and it’s not the front-page headline on a single major national paper?

Dacia Grayber @djgrayber.bsky.social · 05/04/2025

Portland, you showed UP today! Nothing short of inspiring energy in these streets. We are the future we believe in.

Someone told me today the reason bison face into a storm is because the only way to navigate though it is head first. But my god grief is blinding, and it’s hard some days to stand in the swirl of it. In addition to all the other wonderful things… she was just so damn beautiful and radiant. Always.

I will love you to the end of my days and beyond. I don’t know that my heart will ever heal. I do know that you deserved a world far more loving, hopeful, & kind than the current timeline, & I will fight for that until my last breath. Not our best, but love this pic of 3 gens of fierceness. Now 2.

3 generations of women in a black and white photo, in a smiling selfie at night. They may have been plotting a world takeover, or at least, how to tend a garden, but based on those smiles they were definitely up to something. Anything was possible. The beautiful soul on the right died and now they are two generations and the world will never be the same.

Okay so I might not be a “Top Democratic lawmaker” but tell you what- hell no. Trans students & athletes: you are loved. You are respected. You belong on the track, field,and all the spaces to joyfully and safely compete. Let me repeat that: YOU BELONG and we will fight any efforts to change that.

Hi all— your friendly local OR State Rep with a brief Friday update.TL; DR is the fed thrash feels like hell because the chaos and fear and destabilization are the point. And I’m not going to tell anyone how to feel, but I will tell you this: we are fighting it. You are not alone. We’ve got this.
