[PETITION]: Nationwide vote-by-mail

Ellen Rosenblum     John, In Oregon, we've worked to expand easy access to voting: residents are automatically registered to vote when we get our driver's licenses, and we have statewide vote-by-mail. That's right: no polling places! Vote at home and drop your ballot in the mail or drop…

Don't remain silent

Ellen Rosenblum     John, Last month the Trump administration finalized its plan to make major cuts to the SNAP food benefits program. If they thought this sweeping rollback would go unnoticed – they were wrong. Even at a glance, the implications are disastrous. Hundreds of thousands …
