Rambo about their latest article for the paper, called "Portland’s focus on new shelters may reduce opportunities to house people: Since 2021, the city all but eliminated spending that could open new doors for homeless Portlanders transitioning out of shelters into housing. The city says it eliminated housing funding because it’s the county’s responsibility."
