Oregonians demand transparency and accountability. To keep our communities safe, we have a responsibility - independent of the federal government - to investigate the facts of what did or didn't happen. #orpol

The law applies to all of us - including federal officers. We recently put the Dept. of Homeland Security &amp; US Dept. of Justice on notice: they must halt all unlawful actions by federal officers in Oregon. We are actively monitoring federal conduct. No one is above the law.

Today in the Supreme Court, the president’s own lawyers said that the American people will pay 30-80% of the $4 trillion in tariffs. Meanwhile, we’re experiencing an affordability crisis: rising costs of groceries, cuts to food benefits, and more. This is a betrayal of trust.

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

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.

Late tonight, a federal judge issued a sweeping new order prohibiting the president from deploying National Guard forces—from any state or DC—to Oregon. The president can’t keep playing whack-a-mole w/ different states’ Guard units to get around court orders &amp; the rule of law.

Yesterday, the Oregon DOJ argued that the president had not met the standards required by Congress to federalize the National Guard. The judge agreed with us: the president must have actual facts - based on reality - to mobilize the military in the United States.

Yesterday, we filed a lawsuit challenging Trump’s illegal federalization of the National Guard. This morning, we filed a motion for a temporary restraining order to block the federalization from going into effect. We’ll keep sharing updates as things progress.

Today we filed a lawsuit challenging new unlawful SNAP benefits eligibility requirements. We sent a letter to USDA, hoping they had made a mistake, but got no reply - so we took legal action. The Trump administration must follow the law.

Grateful to everyone who came out to tonight’s town hall — including these special guests!

We are in a dangerous place in America right now. Today’s ruling is a wake-up call for the president: it halts what appears to be the president’s attempts to normalize the US military in our cities. #nationalguard #portland #portlandoregon #orpol

We will urge the full Ninth Circuit to vacate today’s decision by a 3-judge panel, before deployments can occur. A Ninth Circuit judge has already called for a vote on whether the case should be heard by the full court. Our team will file a brief encouraging the court to do so.

This is the first time in our history that a president has used food benefits as a political tool. In Oregon, 450,000 families receive SNAP benefits. We filed a lawsuit to release these funds - because no one should go hungry because the government refuses to follow the law.

The president must follow the Constitution. If he wants to push the boundaries, we’ll hold the line in court. This is America. The U.S. military has no place in our streets. Portland is peaceful. There is no reason to deploy National Guard here.

Look at what the president is doing: Attacking the judiciary. Attacking free press. Using fear to intimidate. Trying to normalize the U.S. military in our streets. This is not normal. This is not American. These are attacks on the very pillars of our democracy.

This morning in the district court, we’ll lay out the case for why our second Temporary Restraining Order (TRO) should stay in effect and Nat’l Guard should not be deployed to Portland. Oregon will not allow the president to normalize the use of the U.S. military in our cities.

We just presented our case at the U.S. Supreme Court — these tariffs are an illegal abuse of emergency power that’s harming working families across our country. Oregon Solicitor General Ben Gutman joins to talk about how it went.

We just filed argument is the case to prevent ICE agents from engaging in unlawful and unconstitutional behavior in Oregon. #orpol

Having the U.S. military in our streets is not normal in America — and no one is above the law. On Friday, we’ll be standing up for Oregonians in court, urging the judge to rule that deployment is unlawful and must be stopped. We’ll continue to fight for Oregon’s laws.

We’re going to the Supreme Court this week! Oregon is leading the multistate lawsuit challenging the president’s illegal tariffs. We’ll be presenting our case in front of the U.S. Supreme Court in DC on Wednesday.

We just got a huge win for Oregonians - and a check on the president's power: we received a ruling preventing the president from deploying the National Guard on the streets of our cities. No one - not even the president - is above the law.

Update on our lawsuit to stop the federalization of the National Guard: this morning (Fri) @ 10am, we’ll go before a judge and lay out the facts of the case on our motion to pause the president’s actions. We’ll share updates as we have them. #orpol #portland #nationalguard
