Private companies like Avelo Airlines are profiting off deportation flights that tear families apart and harm our communities. That is not who we are in Oregon. Oregonians are the customer. We get to choose where our dollars go. #nocontractswithice

DHS opened fire in a residential Portland neighborhood, blocks from our District Senator’s home. That is not public safety. It is a dangerous abuse of power by a federal agency operating without accountability. Enough is Enough. #ICEOutOfPDX #Portland #PublicSafety #StopFederalOverreach
