OADP is deeply saddened by the current administration’s disregard for life and justice, prioritizing the expansion of state and federal executions through capital punishment. With a heavy heart, we share this message, as our unwavering goal remains to end the death penalty in Oregon and across the nation. Although the current trajectory may seem determined, we believe there is still time for our community to unite and demand a more just and humane system.
