Port Of Portland Cuts DEI
(Portland, OR) -- The Board of Commissioners for the Port of Portland has voted 8 to 1 to eliminate its diversity, equity, and inclusion policies. It's in response to executive orders signed by President Trump. The Port of Portland and Portland International Airport are heavily dependent on federal contracts. The board heard comments from around 70 people, most of whom opposed the decision. Governor Tina Kotek says they didn't have a lot of choice but says she believes it's important to stand firm on the state's policies.
