70% of Oregon AG work is fighting Trump … not criminals

The Taxpayers Association of Oregon looked at 81 press released issued by Oregon’s new Attorney General, Dan Rayfield since he assumed office in January 2025.

Our analysis reveals that nearly 59 of the 81 press releases deal directly or indirectly with politically fighting President Trump and various Trump-related political Federal actions.

Just look at his press releases in the past week:

Already Attorney General Dan Rayfield has sued the Trump administration 13 times.

This is a trend for Rayfield.  We noted earlier this year, his first two big publci events:

Clearly Attorney General Dan Rayfield’s focus is not on Oregon where it needs to be.

Consider the fact that last week, it was announced that Oregon was part of a multi-state drug bust that broke records for the amount of fentanyl that was seized.

Pushing those drugs were international illegal entry drug dealers.

Yet, Attorney General Rayfield has blocked Oregon law enforcement from working with custom officials.   Rayfield went a step further by encouraging non-citizens to not co-operate with immigrant enforcement officials.  In a way, Rayfield’s anti-Trump crusade is actually giving protection to international drug cartels.

As shown above, Rayfield joined lawsuits on unused electric vehicle charger funding.   This shows that our Attorney General is not focused on helping crime victims but rather millionaires who can afford $60,000 to $1000,000 electric vehicles.  This unused federal electric vehicle funding is such a low-priority, that the Feds and Oregon has delayed utilizing the grant by years.  Only after the Trump administration has targeted such unspent funds has Oregon stepped up to notice.
