Oregon backs Washington state lawsuit
Associated Press
SALEM — Oregon Attor-
ney General Ellen Rosenblum’s
offi ce said it is joining the legal
fi ght playing out against Presi-
dent Donald Trump’s immigra-
tion travel ban.
Rosenblum said Monday
that Oregon is supporting
Washington state’s lawsuit
against Trump’s executive
order by signing a friend of
the court brief in the U.S.
9th Circuit Court of Appeals
along with more than a dozen
other states.
Last week
a federal judge
in
Seattle
ordered a tem-
porary halt to
Trump’s order
Ellen
banning the
Rosenblum entry of peo-
ple from seven
Muslim-majority countries.
Rosenblum said Monday
her offi ce is ready to assist in
the Washington state lawsuit
however it can. Rosenblum
also said she will seek to have
Oregon added to the lawsuit.
A federal appellate court
has scheduled telephone oral
arguments for this afternoon in
a lawsuit over the president’s
travel and refugee ban.
The San Francisco-based
9th Circuit will hear from law-
yers from the federal govern-
ment and states suing Trump.
Washington state and Min-
nesota sued Trump last week,
saying the ban harmed res-
idents and effectively man-
dated discrimination. The Jus-
tice Department says the issue
is a matter of national security
and Trump’s executive order
was well within his authority.

No further searches planned for missing woman
The Daily Astorian
The Clatsop County
Sheriff’s Offi ce announced
it has no further searches
planned for the woman who
went missing in Elsie in
January.
Brianna Renee Judge,
23, was last seen leaving
an apartment on Jan. 10.
Residents located a pair of
boots after a ground search
on Jan. 22 on the Highway
103 bridge near Tweedle
Road. Judge is believed to
have worn the boots on the
night of her disappearance.
A water and ground search
on Jan. 28 as well as several
air searches did not lead to
any additional clues.
Deputies said they are
still investigating, but there
is no evidence to establish
that Judge’s disappearance
is the result of a criminal act.
Anyone with information
regarding the case is encour-
aged to call 503-325-2061.
Senate confi rms education secretary after 50-50 tie
Associated Press
WASHINGTON — U.S.
Sen. Ron Wyden and U.S. Sen.
Jeff Merkley of Oregon voted
against school choice activ-
ist Betsy DeVos as education
secretary, but the controversial
nominee was confi rmed today
after Vice President Mike
Pence broke a 50-50 tie.
The Senate historian says
it was the fi rst time a vice
president had to break a tie on
a Cabinet nomination.
Two Republicans joined
Democrats today to vote to
derail DeVos’ nomination.
Democrats cited her lack of
public school experience and
fi nancial interests in orga-
nizations pushing charter
schools. DeVos has said she
would divest herself from
those organizations.
Republicans Susan Collins
of Maine and Lisa Murkow-
ski of Alaska fear that DeVos’
focus on charter schools will
undermine remote public
schools in their states.
In an earlier tweet, Pres-
ident Donald Trump wrote
“Betsy DeVos is a reformer,
and she is going to be a great
Education Sec. for our kids!”

chief of operations for the fi re
department, arrived for the
noon-to-2 p.m. shift.
“It’s worth honoring
Jason’s legacy, and not let us
forget what he was doing down
here,” Rankin said. “Really,
what all our police offi cers do.
I don’t think our police offi cers
get thanked enough.”
Rankin said lessons could
be gained from the tragedy.
“As terrible as it is and was, I
think it’s also helped to bring
us closer together,” he said.
“To realize at times of crisis
it can bring us together and
become a better family and
it’s helped to up our opera-
tional and planning stages as
far. We’re a small town. Bad
things can happen down here.
We need to be prepared for
them.”
Seaside’s Jay Pitman,
commander and president of
the Clatsop County Sons of
Beaches, a four-wheel drive
club, paid his respects.
“I’ve got current military,
veterans, and active duty per-
sonnel who have been out here
all evening to show their sup-
port,” Pitman said. “You’ve
heard the slogan ‘I’ve got your
back.’ That’s why we’re here.
This vigilance is to show the

local authorities — the fi re
department, the police depart-
ment, the sheriff’s depart-
ment, the state police every-
body who’s been here — when
something happens and they
need our support, our club is
here to help support them and
we’ve got their back.”
The wreath in Goodding’s
honor was delivered at the Sea-
side Civic and Convention Cen-
ter later at a private ceremony
for public safety personnel.
The Columbia County
Sheriff’s Offi ce is reviewing an
incident where a deputy called
a fi re department “dodos” and
an assault victim lying in the
street a “speed bump.”
Columbia County Sheriff
Jeffrey M. Dickerson told The
Oregonian that a meeting is
planned to discuss the matter.
Authorities say the recorded
911 calls made to the on-call
deputy’s home occurred at
about 2:15 a.m. on Jan. 15.
The deputy asked to have
the Clatskanie Fire Depart-
ment respond as it would be
faster.
The dispatcher called back
to say the fi re department
requested law enforcement,
prompting the ‘dodos’ remark
from the deputy.
Dickerson says the deputy
correctly determined the vic-
tim would be best served if
the fi re department responded
immediately.

SEASIDE — P olice and
fi refi ghters paid tribute to their
fallen comrade, Seaside Police
Sgt. Jason Goodding, with an
overnight vigil in front of the
Pig ’N Pancake.
Throughout the night Sun-
day and over the day Mon-
day, fi rst responders, residents
and visitors came to pay their
respects to Goodding, who
was shot and killed in the line
of duty trying to apprehend
Phillip Max Ferry on a felony
warrant.
His death brought an out-
pouring of support from the
community and emergency
personnel around the nation.
Sunday marked one year since
his death.
“We remember our fallen
hero every day, but this eve-
ning we begin a memo-
rial watch that will con-
tinue through early tomorrow
night,” the police depart-
ment posted on its Facebook
page, garnering hundreds of
responses and shares. “Every
two hours, Seaside P olice
offi cers, Seaside fi refi ghters
and other local agencies will
change post while releasing a
blue balloon, honoring the leg-
acy of an incredible individual.
We miss you, Jason.”
At the scene, in prayers and
in tears, visitors paid tribute to
Goodding.
The vigil began Sunday at
8:30 p.m., Seaside Fire Chief
Joey Daniels said, a tribute to
the hour of the shooting.
Seaside Fire Department
Div. Chief Chris Dugan and
volunteer Roy Dague stood
watch Monday morning, sta-
tioned in front of the wreath
dedicated to Goodding.
