Rep. Janelle Bynum

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: this bill is trash. Get your sh*t together @HouseGOP.

The conditions at "Alligator Alcatraz" are uninhabitable, yet the Trump administration is keeping hundreds of people there. This inhumane treatment of immigrants is unacceptable, which is why I've contacted DHS and ICE and demanded they shut it down. washingtonpost.com/nation/2025/07…

Microplastics have been found in Chinook salmon, pink shrimp, and other fish in our rivers and streams. We need to get to the bottom of what this means for our health – my Microplastics Safety Act does just that. oregoncapitalchronicle.com/2025/07/17/ore…

During National Parks and Recreation Month, it was great to meet with representatives from @citizensclimate to discuss how we can work together to keep our environment healthy. Oregon is home to so many beautiful outdoor spaces – I’ll always fight to keep them that way for…

Speaker Johnson is shutting down the House and sending us home early to avoid releasing the Epstein files. We need transparency. Quit wasting my time.

Excited to announce that @ORSecretaryRead will be joining my Molalla Town Hall on August 25th at 6PM. We’ll be talking about elections and voting – mark your calendars! 📅

Modular and off-site construction can be a creative solution to the affordable housing crisis, but @HUDgov doesn’t always permit it to happen. I’m asking why ⬇️

All the feels ❤️

Access to Medicaid and SNAP are a lifeline for thousands of Oregonians, but Republicans’ trash budget has left our communities preparing to have these programs ripped away. All to line the pockets of billionaires. It’s unacceptable. kgw.com/article/news/l…

Over the weekend, the Cram fire in Central Oregon became the largest wildfire of the year so far in the US. I am grateful to the firefighters and local authorities who bravely responded – we need to continue to make sure they have all the resources they need to protect our…

🚨 NEW TOWN HALL DATES 🚨 The Molalla town hall will now be on Monday, August 25 at 6:00PM, moved from 7/28. And Silverton, I'll be heading your way on Saturday, August 30, at 10:30AM, instead of 8/2. Stay tuned for more details, and get ready to give 'em hell!

"The Congressional Budget Office predicts that the package's costs will far outweigh its savings." Thanks to President Trump and Republicans, 10 million people are in danger of losing their healthcare, AND our national debt is going to skyrocket. What a COLOSSAL failure.

In a study of 30 of Oregon’s most iconic waterways, microplastics were found in 100% of the samples! Yet there hasn’t been a single investigation done by the FDA to see what microplastics do to our health – that needs to change. My Microplastics Safety Act will get us the data…

I met with an incredible group of young men representing the Institute for Responsible Citizenship last week, including one of my interns! They all have bright futures ahead of them following graduation – I can’t wait to see what they do as our next generation of leaders.

Microplastics are invading our food, our water, and even our brains! They’re a huge risk to our health and environment—which is why @RepBynum and I teamed up on a bipartisan bill to help address this enormous challenge. oregoncapitalchronicle.com/2025/07/17/ore…

Since the @988Lifeline went live in 2022, nearly 1.5 million calls have been received from LGBTQ+ youth.  The Trump adminisration just shut it down.  This decision is cruel, and he must be held accountable – I won’t stop fighting until the line is back up.…

A Trailblazer through and through. Welcome home, Dame.  It’s Dame Time.

In the middle of the night, Republicans clawed back funding for public broadcasting that had already been approved by Congress. Now, radio and TV programs Oregonians rely on for wildfire alerts and educational programming are at risk. We need to be investing in these programs,…

Republicans are trying to cut $1 BILLION in funding for public broadcasting. That means less local journalism, fewer educational shows for kids, and limited access to emergency alerts.

BREAKING: @SenJeffMerkley, @SenRickScott, @RepBynum & @RepGregSteube introduced legislation directing the FDA to study the human health impacts of #microplastics in our food and water. Read more: steube.house.gov/press-releases…

Did you know? The average person has a plastic spoon worth of microplastics in their brain… I introduced a bill to require @HHSGov to report to Congress on the impacts of microplastics on our health, because we’ve got to get to the bottom of this. WATCH ⬇️
