Fox News: Oregon Democrats plan to start fining GOP senators as boycott hits 1-month mark
Oregon’s longest Republican walkout, aimed at blocking hundreds of Democratic-led bills, including legislation on abortion, gender-affirming care and gun control, has now entered its fifth week. The Democratic Party in Oregon voted to begin fining the Republican senators $325, the daily rate of an average lawmaker, for every absence that deprives the chamber of a quorum.

The state constitution allows a smaller number of members to meet and force attendance at the Senate, even if two-thirds are not present.

The Epoch Times: China Regime ‘Emboldened Enough to Commit Crimes’ in the US, House Chairman Says
Two Chinese agents, suspected to be part of CCP's effort to undermine American sovereignty and suppress dissent, attempted to bribe an undercover FBI agent to revoke a non-profit status held by Falun Gong practitioners in the US. This case is believed to be just the tip of the iceberg in terms of China's influence operations in the US. Republicans on the House Select Committee on China called for more action to protect groups targeted by the CCP and halt its espionage and transnational repression operations on American soil.
The DOJ's bribery case also sheds light on the persecution campaign against Falun Gong practitioners, with at least 172 practitioners dying as a result of the CCP's crackdown in 2022. Forced organ harvesting, which has been called a part of China's genocide, is practised on Falun Gong followers and Uyghur Muslims, leading to their disappearance. US lawmakers, such as Rep. Ashley Hinson, voted in favour of the Stop Forced Organ Harvesting Act of 2023, which would penalize governmental and medical personnel found to be involved in the act and require annual government reporting on such activities.
