Oregon impacted by Trump administration shifts on health funding, DEI policy

from KGW’s Straight Talk · host Stephanie Domurat/KGW

President Donald Trump's executive order halting all diversity, equity and inclusion policies in the federal workforce has prompted some major companies to change their policies. Meanwhile, changes at the National Institutes of Health mean hospitals and universities could lose billions in funding — potentially including Oregon Health and Science University. Two guests joined "Straight Talk" this week to tackle those topics. Dr. Steve Stadum is currently interim president at OHSU, having come out of retirement in November to take over after the resignation of former president Dr. Danny Jacobs. Shari Dunn is a journalist, attorney, professor and author of the book "Qualified," which tackles how DEI initiatives and race collide in the workplace.
