It's too bad the author didn't mention Wyden until the 5th paragraph. The author puts "Senator" in the title, when "Senator Wyden" would be just one more word.
Also, there was zero mention of what state the senator is from. Whatever happened to the standard "(D-OR)" after first mention of a senator in an article?
I almost thought it was a Republican senator given the lack of affiliation!
It does seem like it's always Wyden though. Wish we had a few more like him.
