This will only take about 30 seconds, I promise! In 2024, we defied the odds and flipped this seat from red to blue by an extremely narrow margin.With control of the House on the line, that margin could be even slimmer this year as Republicans look to flip key seats like ours back to red. We can’t let that happen. Chip in a few bucks monthly to help keep OR-05 blue and flip the House.

Take it from me: Oregon is not the safe blue state people think it is. I’m Janelle Bynum, and I represent Oregon’s 5th District in Congress — the most flippable House district in the state. Last cycle, we flipped this seat from red to blue by an extremely narrow margin. This year, I’m one of the most vulnerable Democrats up for reelection — and Oregon is home to some of the closest races up and down the ballot. It’s going to take a truly grassroots effort to hold the line in this swing s

Please read this: Oregon’s 5th District is the most flippable House seat in the state — and defending it is how we take back our majority. Janelle Bynum only won by a handful of votes in 2024. Since then, we’ve lost 6,000 registered Democrats in our district. So our slim advantage just got even slimmer. If we’re going to hold the line and do our part to flip the House, we need the help of this grassroots team. Can we count on you to chip in $3 today and keep Janelle fighting for Oregonians

Each name opens the page’s Vipima page, with its own figures and its link to Meta’s Ad Library.
Figures cover domestic political ads paid in dollars, from 4 May 2026. Spend is the sum of Meta’s range midpoints; impressions above one million are reported as “1M+”, so impression figures are floors. Each ad counts in the week its delivery started, with its lifetime spend at our last pull; ads still running before the vote are counted as of 31 October 2026.
