As frontline clinicians in Oregon, we are deeply concerned about recent violent incidents involving federal law enforcement activity, including events locally where a child was kept from accessing urgent medical care.
Every day, we care for people at their most vulnerable. Our exam rooms, hospitals, and clinics must remain places of safety — where patients can seek care without fear, hesitation, or harm. When people are afraid to leave their homes, bring their children to school, or access medical care, their health suffers. We see this fear in our patients, and we are concerned about the lasting impact it has on both physical and mental health.
