Oregon Attorney General Dan Rayfield marked his 100th day in office by suing the Trump administration for the 13th time. He held a town hall in Portland to engage with constituents on Oregon’s response to the president’s actions. The event allowed Oregonians to voice concerns about federal program cuts and firings of federal workers. Rayfield, a Democrat, discussed the state’s role in multi-state lawsuits and vowed to protect Oregonians from federal overreach.
During the town hall, individuals, unions, and advocacy groups urged Rayfield to continue challenging the Trump administration. They discussed the impact of program cuts on health care, food assistance, climate regulations, and labor rights. Rayfield and Arizona Attorney General Kris Mayes are part of a coalition of Democratic attorneys general coordinating legal challenges against the Trump administration.
Mayes emphasized the importance of preserving democracy and expressed determination to protect it. Rayfield recognized that Oregon can’t fight all aspects of the president’s agenda but pledged to stand up for the people. Despite the challenges, they are committed to fighting for the state’s interests.
Rayfield’s next town hall is scheduled for May 3 in Bend. He emphasized the importance of listening to Oregonians and holding the administration accountable. As the legal battles continue, Rayfield remains focused on protecting Oregon and its residents.
