Portlandâs Police Chief Said Two Immigrants Shot by a Federal Agent Had Links to a Gang. Why? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
On Jan. 9, one day after a federal agent shot two immigrants in East Portland, Portland Police Chief Bob Day stepped behind a lectern to deliver some remarks. The Trump administration had promptly declared the two wounded immigrants had tried to hit several immigration agents with a pickup truck, and described the couple as members of a âviciousâ gang. At a time of broiling political tension, few local officials were prepared to accept this story at face value. Chief Day had initially declin
OHSU Fined Over $1.5 Million for Oregon Staffing Law Violations, More Than Any Other Hospital (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Oregonâs hospital staffing law requires hospital management to abide by staffing plans produced jointly with workers. The law gets enforced when workersâsay, a nurse or a respiratory therapistâtell the state that their employer didnât make or follow the plan.

As part of the plea deal, Luis Nino-Moncada, a Venezuelan national, admitted he was in the U.S illegally and was subject to a prior deportation order. Meanwhile, federa
OHSU Board Approves Plan to Deemphasizeâbut Not EliminateâMedical Centerâs Monkey Research (opens the original)
Read excerpt
After years of pitched debate over a matter of considerable moral and scientific weight, the Oregon Health & Science University oversight board took a significant step Monday toward deemphasizing primate research at the Oregon National Primate Research Center, which is home to one of the largest monkey research colonies in the U.S. The board approved a resolution, a compromise between skeptics and proponents of the centerâs scientific work, that is broad in nature, setting parameters for OHSU
