PRESS RELEASE
Clackamas, OR – Congresswoman Janelle Bynum announced that she has raised over $750,000 in Q1 of the election year, marking the best fundraising quarter for any candidate for the House in Oregon. This impressive haul grows her war chest to over $2 million and brings her total raised for the cycle to over $3 million.
“I am grateful for all the support we have received and that my work in Congress is resonating with the voters here in Oregon,” said Bynum. “My constituents tell me that costs are too high and opportunity is too scarce – that’s why I’ve made addressing those issues my top priorities in Washington. With the continued support of Oregonians, I’ll keep fighting against the cruelty and nonsense coming from the White House and for a better life for everyone in Oregon.”
She’s fighting for families over special interests with a strong grassroots campaign that over 16,000 people have donated to this cycle.
During Congresswoman Bynum’s first term in office, she has been laser-focused on working across the aisle to deliver real results and to show up for her constituents, proving that she’s the right person to fight for Oregonians in Congress.
Rep. Bynum has hosted over 100,000 Oregonians at 27 town halls across OR-05, including her 10 stop “Give ‘Em Hell” Tour in response to the Trump Administration’s chaos.
Rep. Bynum has helped the district earn over $160 million in federal funding, including delivering over $34 million to fund investments in clean drinking water, public safety, child care, affordable housing, and more.
Rep. Bynum introduced 18 pieces of bipartisan legislation, including 5 that passed in the House, that seek to lower costs, protect Oregon’s environment, support students, keep Oregonians healthy, and support wildfire response efforts.
