Multnomah County Sued for Alleged Sanctuary Law Violation
Update: 2025-12-30
Description
Immigrant rights groups are challenging Multnomah Countys compliance with Oregons sanctuary law, alleging the county and its sheriffs office are holding individuals for immigration issues despite bail or judicial orders for release. The lawsuit highlights a case where a man was detained for three days after a judge ordered his release. The countys agreement with the U.S. Marshals Service, allowing the jail to hold federal detainees, is under scrutiny, with the lawsuit claiming recent holds occurred despite the countys claim to have stopped. County officials maintain the agreement remains in place, while the Marshals Service has gained new powers to act as immigration officers. Checkout Solipillow.com
