Measure Fails as Police Union Challenges | Portland News
Description
Portland’s bid to fund more cops via Measure 1PDX2026 has fizzled, failing to qualify for the November ballot due to insufficient signatures — a setback amid severe police staffing shortages. Supporters saw the clean energy fund as a viable solution, but the Portland Police Association is now accusing organizers of mishandling signatures, data errors, and lack of transparency, and plans to sue to overturn the decision, calling it a blow to public safety and community well-being.
