AGP Executive Report

Last update: 9 hours ago

Wildfire Relief Fight: A federal judge blocked DHS/FEMA from tying Oregon disaster grants to Trump “pronoun” and DEI-related mandates, calling it an improper use of relief funds as wildfires and storms keep hitting the state. LGBTQ Healthcare: CMS says federal Medicaid/CHIP dollars can’t pay for gender-affirming care for minors, a move tied to the Trump-Vance push to restrict LGBTQ healthcare. AI Power Backlash: Voters in multiple towns are turning to recalls to stop data centers as electricity demand spikes and promised benefits don’t match the reality. Oregon Community & Immigration: Forest Grove’s Leslie Perez at Adelante Mujeres is helping families navigate immigration with bilingual support and a more welcoming first step. Local Governance & Ethics: Union County Commissioner Matt Scarfo reached a settlement with Oregon’s ethics commission, resolving a complaint tied to term-limit litigation. Oregon Outdoors: BLM is urging strict compliance with hunting-season wildfire restrictions across Oregon and Washington through late September. Culture & Fun: The Painted Hills Festival returns Sept. 5 in Mitchell, with races, a quilt show, parade sign-ups, and vendor applications.
