I’m back. I’ve been away while running for office, and afterward I struggled w/ how to engage with the looming ugliness of this administration without letting it consume me. But retreat isn’t really my style. I’m back—paying attention, speaking up & continuing to fight for the values that matter.

I did a thing. I told the truth about data centers—the energy, the water, the jobs, the subsidies, and the lack of transparency. It cost me an endorsement. But I stand by every word. I’m the same person knocking on your door as I am behind closed doors. www.wweek.com/news/busines...

I clearly remember the night that Trump won the first time. The disgust, the disbelief and the overwhelming feeling I was going to spend the next decade or more of my life fighting back against the damage done that very moment. And so it has gone — but no one can say I stayed silent.

I grew up in rural Oregon, on a dairy farm. I know what it means to get up early, work hard, and depend on your community to get the job done. If you believe we need steady, practical leadership in HD52 — chip in $20.26. 👉🏻https://secure.actblue.com/donate/teamnwp

My name is Nick Walden Poublon and I’m running to represent Oregon’s 52nd district in the State House! I’m an educator by day who sees the funding woes our schools face first hand. I also understand that affordability isn’t just a buzz word but a serious concern! www.NWPforOregon.com

I’m an openly gay man running for office in rural Oregon and here’s the thing — I’m going to turn this district blue. I lost to the Republican Minority Leader in my state by 3.4% in 2024. He’s not running for re-election. We can do this but I need your help. www.NWPforOregon.com

I believe that healthcare is a human right. That’s why I serve on the board of Healthcare For All Oregon & am the Chair of the Democratic Party of Oregon’s Healthcare Caucus. I will always be on the side of the great people of my state and their ability to receive the care they need. #orpol

There’s something deeply unsettling about watching Trump encourage people in Iran to rise up and protest—while at the same time defending the killer of a non-violent protestor here at home.

It's an old and obvious pattern. An unpopular president - failing on the economy and losing his grip on power at home - decides to launch a war for regime change abroad. The American people don’t want to “run” a foreign country while our leaders fail to improve life in this one.

It's official: Congress and Donald Trump have allowed the enhanced Affordable Care Act subsidies to expire. Millions of Americans will either lose their health coverage or face dramatically higher premiums. Shame on Congress. Shame on Trump. This will cost lives.

After Trump sent unmarked troops into Portland, something unexpected happened: my community grew. People showed up because we’re better when we work together, because Portland is not the dystopia it was painted to be, and because I refuse to be intimidated into silence.

Trump said today Russia wants to see Ukraine succeed. That claim defies reality and insults the intelligence of anyone paying attention. Russia has invaded Ukraine, targeted civilians, kidnapped children, and attempted to erase a sovereign nation from the map. Trump is lying.

LET’S NOT FORGET: Approximately 70% of adults receiving food stamps (SNAP) work 35 hours or more a week. Nobody grows up and dreams of needing foot stamps. SNAP is a safety net we can’t afford to cut.

I have news for you: I teach. Kids are already coming to school hungry from a lack of food in my district. SNAP running dry will only make that worse. We should be ashamed.

The thing that makes me the sickest is that these folks don’t even have a shred of compassion. It’s one thing to enforce laws and rules. It’s another to do it gleefully and celebrate the suffering of someone born into poverty and desperation
