About this listen

Is Oregon’s youth justice system protecting anyone?

In this episode of Oregon D.O.G.E., Sen. Mike McLane, Rep. Jeff Helfrich, and Mack Smith examine the collapse of the Oregon Youth Authority. With 3,000+ ignored abuse complaints, DEI-influenced hiring gone wrong, and a $51 million lawsuit pending, the system meant to protect vulnerable kids is now under fire from all sides.

Topics covered:

  • How DEI duties took precedence over abuse investigations
  • Internal concerns ignored for years
  • A director fired too late—and accountability still lacking
  • Oregon’s lack of independent investigative oversight
  • $550M in funding—and almost no transparency
