(Salem, OR) -- Oregon is joining Washington and 19 states in a lawsuit against the federal government over implementation of an executive order by President Trump. Attorney General Dan Rayfield says new federal contracting terms are unclear and confusing, simply in an effort to purge "diversity, equity and inclusion" guidelines. He says the new mandates punish contractors for following laws they've complied with for decades. The suit claims federal agencies took shortcuts in rolling out the President's wishes, violating rules over accepting public comment.
