• Pressure mounts for Gresham to declare immigration enforcement ‘state of emergency' (theoutlookonline.com) — Cornelius is among several Oregon communities that have already declared an immigration-related state of emergency, a step Gresham is now under pressure to take as residents describe fear and disruption from ICE activity. Gresham officials are weighing options like “Know Your Rights” education, eviction and utility protections, and clearer limits on cooperation with federal agents while staying within Oregon’s sanctuary law.
