Rep. Hoyle on Fighting for an Economy that Works for Working People
For Immediate Release: March 25, 2025
WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today, Representative Val Hoyle (OR-04) gave a speech in the U.S. House of Representatives in support of an economic populist vision that unapologetically puts workers, their needs, and the revitalization of the American Dream first. In her speech, Rep. Hoyle talked about her experience as a third-generation union member who understands how working people across the country feel increasingly unheard and left behind. She called on Democrats to bridge the gap, listen to working people, and return to their roots as the party that champions the economic policies and programs that enable them to live in dignity.
“We should all be fighting for a real path to the middle class. Young people want to be able to work one job and afford to buy a home and raise a family – and that is not the reality for too many Americans,” said Rep. Hoyle. “That’s what Democrats should stand for and be working for every single day.”
