Child care is essential infrastructure, the workforce behind the workforce that makes all other work in our country happen. And when we work together, we get things done. Though our work to make meaningful changes that will benefit all Americans will prove more challenging... 2/
As we wait for official battleground results from state officials as they #CountEveryVote, be sure to check in on each other. If you have yet to turn in your ballots, be sure to do so by 8pm TONIGHT! And remember: voters decide elections, not politicians or billionaires.

No one should set their own salary—especially when taxpayer dollars are involved. The current system where legislators set their own pay doesn't make sense and creates barriers for working Oregonians to serve in public office.
