Records confirm a narrative out of Gov. Kotek's office that my colleagues have followed for weeks: That ethical questions around the first lady's power splintered Kotek's office: opb.org/article/2024/0…
Apropos of nothing: At this week's council hearing on public camping, commissioners asked how it would impact a protest encampment (like 2011's Occupy Portland). City atty said it wouldn't apply. But he added that the city is currently "not equipped for an Occupy event."
Portland city council rejected Cm Gonzalez's camping proposal last night, advancing Mayor Wheeler's plan to regulate camping on public property. opb.org/article/2024/0…
It's one of those Very Fun city council hearings today where amendments are being updated just hours before the mtg -- and it's unclear if the public (or electeds!) will truly know what they're giving testimony on. Democracy!
What's it look like to advocate for people who use drugs in a part of Oregon where such people are routinely villainized and pushed to the fringes? It's not easy work. opb.org/article/2024/0…

I am at the US Supreme Court where Grants Pass v. Johnson is scheduled for oral arguments today. Demonstrators have gathered to stage a “lie in” representing the cruelty of criminalizing the basic necessities needed to survive homelessness. Reporting for @StreetRoots / @OPB
