2021 Keizer police department investigated complaints against McNary High School teacher Joshua Rist. They conducted interviews with students from Hermiston & McNary High schools. There were complaints of alleged "inappropriate contact with students" The alleged crimes would have constituted harassment or third-degree sexual abuse the DA's office said with sufficient evidence. The TSPC (Teacher's standard & Practice Commission) did an investigation and concluded that Rist had engaged in a gross neglect of duty. Rist agreed to the findings and was required to complete a 4 hour training. He was subjected to a 60 day suspension of his license from June to August as paid leave. His license would be on probation for 3 years. When Rist came off the 60 day probation he was reassigned to Kalapuya Elemntary School as a music teacher without the parent's knowledge of his previous behavior. September 2023 2 Former McNary High Students file a $10 million lawsuit on Salem Keizer SD claiming that the district did not do enough to protect them form a predator. According to the lawsuit the students state that Rist groomed, harassed and abused them as minors. As of now Rist is on paid administrative leave and the Superintendent has stated "Based on what I know today, I do not believe Mr Rist should be allowed to serve students in Salem Keizer public schools or anywhere else." Castaneda said "I have already removed him from Kalapuya, and to the degree that it is legally under my control, I will not reinstate him in a student facing role" Rist was passed from Hermiston to McNary and then to Kalapuya.

Oregon health insurance rates will be increasing. In doing some research there are several reasons why this is happening. In 2018 by the vote of the people taxes were added to insurance plans and hospital bills. In 2021 the legislature passed a bill which provides health insurance benefits through OHP to all people regardless of immigration status. In the last legislative session HB2002 was passed which requires all gender "affirming care" puberty blockers, hormone therapies and to be covered by OHP. All of these factors means an INCREASE in health insurance rates. The ones most effected? Small business owners AND people who pay for their own insurance.

It is interesting to see who donates to Oregon politicians. Why would out of estate real estate developers, medical companies like Davita, cyptocurrency executives, unions located in DC and political PACS in other states give large sums of money to Oregon candidates? Val Hoyle received large sums for the Soros family. Soros funded measure 110 through the Drug Policy Alliance to the tune of $5 million dollars. What i found most interesting in the large amounts of anonymous donors through ACT BLUE. No name, no place and no record of where they work. What do you think Oregonians?

The I-5 Bridge needs to be replaced. Our government has spent $261 million to STUDY the bridge replacement. $65 million was spent in 2009 and in 2013 $196.6 million was spent. All of it spent with no conclusive plan. Earl Blumenauer insisted that the bridge include light rail which in the design made it impassable by large ships. So, back to the drawing board. Now government officials say it will cost $6 BILLION to replace and are proposing to place tolls on the bridge pre-completion to fund the construction.

WHY DOES the Senator not know that in 2017 Kate Brown codified into law abortion for all as well as it is paid for by tax dollars. There is no reason to pass HB 2002. The only reason imaginable is to give kids access to treatments such as puberty blockers and surgeries that will mutilate them.

Oregon Board of Education votes to SUSPEND graduation requirements until 2027. Prior to the pandemic all 11th grade students in Oregon were required to demonstrate competence in essential skills like reading, writing and math through standardized testing OR a PORTFOLIO of work. Students who did not demonstrate proficiency were required to make up their work in their senior year in order to graduate. During the pandemic these requirements were suspended. The Oregon Board of Education hear d testimony and voted again to suspend the basic skills of essential requirements until 2027. WHY??? Because students or color and disabilities are "marginalized". Dru Draper reported from the meeting that the chair of the board compared graduation requirements to syphilis experiments on black men in the mid 1900',s. The ODE continues to give parents a reason to pull their students our of public schools. Another opportunity for school choice petitions to gain momentum and get on the ballot.

Oregon is asking EV (electric vehicle) owners to participate in a pay per mile tax. EV owners will have a device on their vehicle to track mileage for a tax. Taxes have to be paid for in some way! Currently the purchase price of gas in Oregon includes a tax that pays for road maintenance. If an EV isn't using gas then the state will get it's tax in another way while tracking EV owners Follow Oregon Citizen Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/oregoncitizen Twitter: https://twitter.com/oregoncitizen_ If you live in Oregon and have a story to share email oregoncitizennews@protonmail.com
