Representative Val Hoyle

We should be here in DC doing the job of the American people. d12t4t5x3vyizu.cloudfront.net/moskowitz.ho...

We should be here in DC doing the job of the American people. We should be here in public, in hearings, talking about the real reason for going to war.

Speaker Johnson, bring us back into session and vote for the war powers resolution. Do your job.

President Trump truth social post announcing Noem's firing

There has been ZERO accountability.

It can’t be worse… or can it?

Kristi Noem’s firing is long overdue.

Under her “leadership”, she set up internment camps where immigrants have been murdered and horrifically treated, she grifted hundreds of millions of dollars from the American taxpayer, killed Americans in the street and so much more.

On #RuralVoicesDay, thanks to our rural public radio stations, like KLCC and Jefferson Public Radio, Southern and Southwest Oregon are kept informed and connected to one another and the world, no matter what. @npr.org @klccoregon.bsky.social @jpradio.bsky.social

2/ It’s off the rails insane that our military leaders are going down this road.

I urge my colleagues to join me in voting for the War Power's Resolution to take back the power of Congress in matters of war. www.huffpost.com/entry/troops...

1/ The first amendment of the Constitution prohibits state-sponsored religion and protects religious freedom. Starting a war to fulfill a biblical prophecy to bring about Armageddon is unconstitutional and puts the American people at serious risk.

Under Stephen Miller’s influence and Kristi Noem’s leadership, ICE and CPB cannot be reformed. They are building up an army to use against not only immigrants, but American citizens.
 
That’s why I will again be voting NO on DHS funding this week.

Steps to take for Americans in the Middle East.

Americans in the Middle East: My office is here to help. You can reach us at (202) 225-6416 or Hoyle.house.gov.

2/ It is our children who fill the boots on the ground, and our taxpayer dollars that pay the bill.

1/ Under the Constitution, the power to declare war rests exclusively with Congress.

Congress must vote on the War Powers Resolution.

For too long, presidents of both parties have dragged our country into endless foreign wars.

You don't say...

2/ I’m proud that over 70 of my colleagues signed onto the letter Labor Caucus leaders and I led to Teleperformance demanding they allow their workers to unionize. #UnionStrong @cwaunion.bsky.social @opeiu.org

Rep. Hoyle and Labor Caucus leaders demand interpreters right to unionize

1/ During a @laborcaucus meeting, I spoke with interpreters working under LanguageLine Solutions and ZP Better Together who shared troubling reports about working conditions.

Our 41 emergency physicians & our community deserve better. Lives quite literally depend on the integrity of SW Oregon’s emergency care. I expect a quick response from PeaceHealth President Sarah Ness to my letter demanding they reconsider their decision to allow a corporate takeover from Georgia.

Happy 141th Birthday, Springfield! The people truly make the place, and what an amazing place. I am so proud to represent such a creative and inclusive community. @cityspfldoregon.bsky.social

These problems must be our priority. Now that we’ve heard the so-called State of the Union, it’s time to get to work.

- Having to choose between groceries and a doctor's visit due to rising costs
- Disappearing jobs, unions and opportunities
- Underfunded schools
- Keeping our lands public. Not selling to the highest bidder
- Kristi Noem's DHS killing citizens without any oversight and accountability

Despite the longest State of the Union on record, the President didn't speak to the concerns of Americans and Oregonians:

These “tax cuts” are corporate socialism. The victim? You.

More than 50% of Oregonians would need to pay for new documents just to exercise their right to vote.

The SAVE Act punishes millions of American citizens and strips them of their right to vote.

Claim: “The SAVE Act will prevent non-citizens from voting.”

Reality: Elections in Oregon are already secure. The SAVE Act would require more than 900,000 married women in Oregon alone who changed their last names to re-register to vote.

Trade wars & tariffs have severely damaged American farmers and caused financial hardship. More than 15,000 farms closed in 2025 alone.

Claim: “Farmers, cattle producers, etc. have record profits”

Reality: False. Cattle ranchers are reporting record losses. Argentinian beef imports have not brought prices down either. The National Cattlemen’s Beef Association have expressed that the Admin’s policies are hurting ranchers.

Claim: “Prices on beef are way down…”

Reality: Prices on almost all groceries are up. Beef has increased an avg. of 22% since the beginning of 2025.

Claim: “Republicans made the largest tax cuts in history.”

Reality: ❌ Republicans gave corporations a $5 trillion dollar tax cut. They paid for it by gutting your Medicaid. Making healthcare more expensive across the board. Cutting funding to your children’s schools.

Claim: “Inflation is down”

Reality: You’re not crazy. Your dollar isn’t stretching as far. Groceries, energy, housing, healthcare: prices are up ⬆️. Americans are paying almost $1600 more for just the basics.

The kicker? The Administration’s illegal tariffs are partly to blame.

Claim: “We have 4 million less people on food stamps.”

Reality:❌This Administration made the largest cuts to SNAP (food assistance) in the country. 13.7% of Americans are struggling with food insecurity as of 2026. The highest rate since 2014.

Claim: “Our nation is richer than ever before.”

Reality: Wealth inequality is at its highest in history. America is at its most unequal in its history.

I will NOT be at the State of the Union tonight. I am not here to play politics. I am here to work for the people in my district.

I’ll be fact checking claims made at the State of the Union here and on my other pages.
