Oregon sues feds again over 10th Amendment violations

Four of Oregon's federal representatives want investigations into the "unrequested presence and violent actions of federal forces in Portland." Additionally, the US Attorney for Oregon also wants an investigation into the actions of Homeland Security personnel.

Oregon's US senators Ron Wyden and Jeff Merkley along with US Representatives Earl Blumenauer and Suzanne Bonamici now want the US Department of Justice and the Inspector General's office to investigate the federal agents presence in Portland.

They earlier sent a letter to Wolf and Attorney General William Barr condemning the escalation of violent tactics against protesters.

And in a statement, US Attorney for Oregon Billy Williams said, "Based on news accounts circulating that allege federal law enforcement detained two protestors without probable cause, I have requested the Department of Homeland Security Office of the Inspector General to open a separate investigation directed specifically at the actions of DHS personnel."
