    I think this wall is a stupid idea and a rip off for the American taxpayer.

    You won’t believe the exceptional work done by Tillamook High School students on their annual Charity Drive. Last year, students raised more than $176k for Doernbecher Children's Hospital, student scholarships, and community grants. Keep up the great work!

    Since OR's Global Warming Commission found last year that the bulk of carbon emissions in OR come from dead, diseased trees, it’s never been so clear that now is time for better forest management practices to reduce harmful emissions & curb the threat that future fires may pose.

    . is right: not just a lack of management, but mismanagement of our forests are making them so ripe for devastating fires, like the ones our neighbors in California have had to endure this season.

    Public libraries are one of the most important resources for a local community. That’s why I worked with the United States Library of Congress and its surplus book program to help add to Mt. Angel Public Library’s collection. Thanks for what you do for the people of Mt. Angel!

    The Benedictine Brewery and Taproom in Mount Angel Abby is one of only three breweries in the nation owned and operated by monks. Even in Oregon, the beer capitol of the world (some would say), this is special. Thanks for showing me around.

    As a veterinarian, I appreciate the work that Maria does at Silver Creek Lambscapes. However, new tariffs on meat products are hurting her business. It’s important to remember that when we talk about “trade wars,” it affects people in our own community.

    Thanks to the Tillamook Habitat for Humanity for their dedication to the community. With perseverance and some outside-the-box thinking, they are helping families build homes they can afford.

    Today, I joined fishermen in Newport to talk about this industry which they have built over generations to be one of the most successful and sustainable in the world. As fishermen continue to innovate their industry, it’s important the government keeps up to ensure their success.

    It’s been more than two years in the making, but we finally cut the ribbon on the Highway 101 improvement project in downtown Tillamook! Tillamook is also the home of new businesses! Thank you to the Tillamook Chamber of Commerce for taking me around!

    The Kiwanis Club of Tillamook exemplifies the power of community. Over their 50 years they have given back in so many ways, including raising and donating more than 450K to local students, helping more than 425 pursue dreams of higher education.

    The City of Wheeler is angling to evolve our Oregon fisheries with the Community Supported Fisheries Program. With their new home in Wheeler, the group’s “boat to table” process offers higher quality products for locals and more equitable rates for fishermen.

    Today, at the Pacific Technology Alliance roundtable on rural broadband access, we talked about what can be done to encourage rural connectivity and freedom of access so that no American is left behind in the 21st century economy because of where they live.

    Walking through Independence with Mayor McArdle today it’s obvious that the city is taking big steps. It will be very exciting to see what new business, jobs, and visitors these developments along the waterfront bring to this small community.
