Federal shutdown

Cancellations at 40 major airports led to cancellations and delays that could last through the weekend.

Sen. Ron Wyden said efforts are needed to help food banks recover after delay in SNAP benefit releases, and said he and other Oregon lawmakers will fight an ICE detention center in Newport.

The judges ruled in favor of local officials who sought to force the federal government to keep the SNAP program running in November.

One in six Oregonians receives SNAP benefits. If the government shutdown continues, many are unsure how they’ll get by.

Sens. Wyden and Merkley hope for a bipartisan solution as the public sees the reality of subsidy cuts in new rates.

Ahead of a potential federal government shutdown, U.S. Representative Val Hoyle says she plans to hold the line with the rest of her party for a Republican compromise on healthcare.
