Veterans play an essential role in defending our nation & it is our duty to care for them when they come home. Today I was proud to uphold this promise by voting for the #PactAct so that veterans exposed to toxic substances can access the proper care & benefits they've earned. https://t.co/xVzC0iEYyz
I visited a local internet service provider in Stayton to talk about the critical need for expanded broadband access in rural Oregon. The funding I helped secure through the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law will bring nearly $100 million to our state to get all Oregonians connected. https://t.co/eQWAVaWfWi

I had a great visit with @bendhumane to talk about their facilities, services and plans for future growth. As a veterinarian, I especially appreciate the amazing work they are doing to make sure pets are off the streets and placed into loving homes. https://t.co/3xebUz8IRf
Thanks to the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law I championed, Oregon will soon receive the first $8M in investments in EV charging infrastructure. This will help fight the climate crisis by reducing carbon pollution and create good-paying jobs for Oregonians. #ElectrifyingAmerica QT @USDOTFHWA: .@USDOT and @USDOE announce $5B over 5 years for national electric vehicle (EV) charging network along Interstate h… https://t.co/KshastvBQJ)
Lowering prescription drug costs is my top priority, and I'm proud of my work in #BuildBackBetter on this huge issue. In today’s @EnergyCommerce #HealthSub hearing, I asked the @US_FDA what they’re doing to bring more biosimilars and generics to market to drive down drug costs.
If you’d like to volunteer to help work on the new trail that will have a great view of North Falls, there’s another opportunity on President’s Day next month. ⬇️ https://t.co/6hYgWQBW9h
Thank you to all the volunteers who made this project on the new North Rim trail at Silver Falls State Park a success on #MLKDay!

It was also great to see some folks from back home at the summit! The @OregonState Global Hemp Innovation Center is the only hemp seed certifier in the state, and one of only four in the country. Their research is critical to helping the hemp industry succeed. https://t.co/2M3kcCe7xj
Thank you, @NatHempCouncil for inviting me to speak at the Hemp Business Summit this morning. I enjoyed talking about my bill that would have the @US_FDA regulate CBD as a dietary supplement.

Ongoing drought is depleting PNW salmon, putting Oregon’s commercial fishing communities at risk. Federal resources are critical to help commercial fishers recover while we focus on addressing the climate crisis harming our rivers, oceans and wildlife. https://t.co/xCswci0Fen
We reached a deal with the White House and key Senators to reduce prescription drug costs. It's based on my bill with @RepScottPeters that allows Medicare negotiation of the most expensive drugs on the market.
This life-changing proposal must be included in the #BuildBackBetterAct to reduce healthcare costs. I’m urging all my colleagues to get on board as the framework continues to take shape.
