Rethinking Portland’s Law Enforcement

Former District Attorney Josh Marquis provided a compelling perspective during our recent interview.

Marquis’ years of experience in the legal arena added weight to his argument, sparking a crucial conversation about the best way forward for Portland’s public safety.

Governor Tina Kotek’s recent announcement added a new layer to the conversation. She revealed plans for an Oregon State Police initiative aimed at cracking down on fentanyl dealing in Portland.
