HereTogether, a homelessness nonprofit organization in Portland, Oregon, has just petitioned city leaders to contribute $828,000 in taxpayer money to the Clackamas County Office of Equity and Inclusion. The organization’s insistence that DEI-related issues are at the core of Portland’s homelessness crisis could not be any more out of touch with reality. The exuberant fiscal decision will only decrease necessary resources and cause more harm to homeless Portlanders.
