BEAVERTON, OR – Today Congresswoman Suzanne Bonamici (D-OR) and state and county leaders gathered at Virginia Garcia Wellness Center for a progress report on their work to address the opioid crisis.
Rep. Suzanne Bonamici (D-Ore.) has already observed damaging environmental changes at home—like the change in seawater chemistry that is harming her state's shellfish industry.
"I represent the amazingly beautiful Oregon north coast," Bonamici told Bloomberg Environment. "We realized that ocean acidification was affecting that industry, and then really started looking at ocean acidification and realizing we really need to do something about it."
A bill by Republican U.S. Rep. Bill Posey to study the acidification of estuaries including the Indian River Lagoon was approved Wednesday on the floor of the U.S. House of Representatives.
"We are here collectively to send a message that reproductive care is health care, that access to a safe abortion is health care, that health care is a right, and we stand together to fight for that right and we're going to win," Merkley said.
After Special Counsel Robert Mueller's Wednesday morning remarks, several members of Oregon's congressional delegation joined a growing chorus on Capitol Hill calling for impeachment proceedings against President Donald Trump.
U.S. Rep. Suzanne Bonamici has reaffirmed her belief that Congress should open an impeachment inquiry of President Donald Trump, after Special Counsel Robert Mueller said Wednesday that his report into Russian meddling did not exonerate the president.
"As Mueller said when closing his statement, 'there were multiple systematic efforts to interfere with our election. And that deserves the attention of every American,'" Bonamici posted to Twitter on Wednesday, May 29. "We must hold everyone who was involved — including the president — accountable."
PORTLAND, Ore. — After Robert Mueller spoke publicly for the first time, several members of Oregon's congressional delegation renewed calls for impeachment.
During a press conference Wednesday morning, Mueller said, "If we had had confidence that the president did not commit a crime, we would have said so."
