Rep. Janelle Bynum addresses immigration crackdown, shutdown impacts on her district

PORTLAND, Ore. (KOIN) — It seems like only yesterday that Congresswoman Janelle Bynum (D-Ore.) flipped Oregon’s 5th Congressional District in 2024, defeating now-Labor Secretary Lori Chavez-DeRemer.

Recently, Rep. Bynum, an engineer and business owner, has been vocal about the Immigration and Customs Enforcement raids in America.

This comes especially after one of her constituents, an American citizen, was apprehended and detained on his way to work. He was later released.

Rep. Bynum returned to Eye on Northwest Politics to talk about that case, the immigration crackdown, as well as the impact of the weeks-long government shutdown on her district.

Watch the full interview in the video above.
