Respectfully not crickets! There has been a lot of new housing development in Gresham, and repurposing a park and ride into the new East County library plus room for housing. Division has had a ton of development around the FX2 line. They also have a workgroup right now to assess more opportunities.

WA peeps, today is the LAST DAY to comment on the Data Center Workgroup draft recommendations.
So if you, too, think that we should keep closing rural hospitals & cutting food bank funding so that we can be vassals to our tech overlords & offer them h̶u̶m̶a̶n̶ ̶s̶a̶c̶r̶i̶f̶i̶c̶e̶ tax exemptions, uh, say so!

if I recall rightly, trying to redirect some percentage of 911 calls to 311, thinking that those things don't need armed or other emergency response, was one of the recommendations of the 911 workgroup/audit in 2019 (along with the mental health response that became behavioral crisis response).

Now the questions is, will this go back to a workgroup and good scientific process? And if it does, will decisions reflect the findings of the data. Who will be on the workgroup, more ideology clones or balanced scientist? We shall see.

6) The COVID workgroup chair made good on his position as THE COVID overlord to present data of dubious quality that had not been through the normal ACIP process (like they noted for Hep B). Using the same logic as the Hep B vote, they should have tabled that vote too and maintained status quo.

The COVID-19 workgroup finally put their recommendations - the ones that ACIP will vote on - up.
The operative part - what's in ACIP's power - is that anyone can only get the vaccine under shared clinical decision making, and they essentially recommend against it for most people under 65. 1/2

AMA liaison expresses surprise that basic research on genetics and immune response was presented at ACIP rather than the workgroup, and that these studies highlight the need for more research which is in tension with HHS cutting funds. She's also concerned about the effect on access.

The workgroup is looking at preventing pregnant women from being able to vaccinate themselves against pregnancy. They may not do it today, but they are planning to work to deny these women the option, preventing them from protecting themselves and their babies.

CDC is amplifying an MIT operations research professor - now chair of ACIP’s COVID workgroup - who has argued against mRNA vaccination. He cites outlier Korean autopsy data while U.S. surveillance shows myocarditis is rare, falling, and already labeled.

ACIP and workgroup members would use something called GRADE - which is basically a very specific, rigorous framework that goes beyond a systematic review
Evidence certainty gets up/downgraded based on a wide list of considerations

Well Oregon formed a workgroup to talk about it
In the so-called “big, beautiful bill” congressional Republicans approved in July, they included a prohibition on Medicaid funding for Planned Parenthood clinics across the country.
Washington state will backfill lost Medicaid dollars for Planned Parenthood after a court ruling last week.

Washington will replace Planned Parenthood’s lost Medicaid funding with state dollars
A court ruling last week halted federal Medicaid payments going to the nonprofit. Meanwhile, a push is on to reverse state cuts to an abortion access program.
