On this day, March 28, 1942, Japanese-American lawyer Minoru Yasui (1916-1986) violated a military curfew in Portland, Oregon, and demanded to be arrested after he was refused enlistment to fight for the US. He was one of the few Japanese Americans who fought laws that directly targeted Japanese Americans or Japanese immigrants following the bombing of Pearl Harbor. In 2015 he was among 17 people awarded the presidential Medal of Freedom.

Also on this day March 28, 1939, the front page of the Eugene Register-Guard blared the headline: "Mighty Oregon Scramble Ohio State to Take Hoop Title of All America," right under a declaration that the Spanish War had ended, of course.

Justin Hwang Named Oregon Republican Party Chair
“I’m excited to bring a fresh voice and years of experience as a small business owner”

The Oregon Republican Party has announced that Justin Hwang will step in to become the new Chairman to fill a vacancy after Herman Baertschiger stepped down. Hwang served as Vice-Chair before Herman Baertschiger submitted his letter of resignation. Chairman Hwang released the following statement on his new role leading the state party:

“I am humbled and honored to step in as Chairman of the Oregon Republican Party. I want to thank Herman Baertschiger for his service as our chair and years of public service. He is a friend and mentor and someone who I will always lean on for advice. I also want to thank the ORP delegates for previously electing me as Vice-Chair and trusting me to lead our party.

I’m excited to bring a fresh voice and years of experience as a small business owner. My colleagues and I are ready to get to work and we only have one vision in mind for 2022- elect more Republicans to office. We are facing record inflation, rampant homelessness, and serious lack of leadership from Kate Brown and Joe Biden. Oregonians are fed up and a red wave will happen in November. We will knock doors and fundraise for our candidates. There are strong Republicans running up and down the ballot this year and I’m excited to work with all of them!”

Hwang is a small business owner with more than 30 restaurants across the Portland-metro area and a former state legislative candidate.
