City of Bend sees surge of interest in Human Rights and Equity Commission

Central Oregon elected officials are taking opposite approaches to the Trump administration's targeting of diversity, equity and inclusion programs.
The City of Bend has experienced a significant increase in interest for its Human Rights and Equity Commission, with 35 applications received for the five available positions. This surge in applications reflects a growing community focus on human rights and equity issues. The commission, which was established to advise the city council on policies promoting human rights, equity, and inclusion, has seen its profile rise due to recent social justice movements and local initiatives aimed at addressing systemic inequalities. The high number of applicants indicates a strong community desire to participate in shaping policies that foster a more inclusive environment in Bend.
