Portland Mayor Ted Wheeler is leading an effort to pressure the state to immediately pay for temporary homeless shelters.

PORTLAND, Ore. — Portland Mayor Ted Wheeler is leading an effort to pressure the state to immediately pay for temporary homeless shelters a week after announcing a planned crackdown on homeless camps near busy roadways.

Wheeler joined Mosier Mayor Arlene Burns and Eugene Mayor Lucy Vinis in announcing the idea to other mayors at a Friday call for the League of Oregon Cities, a coalition that lobbies the Oregon legislature, Oregon Public Broadcasting Wheeler’s emergency order last week prohibits homeless people from camping on dangerous high-crash corridors in the city but it didn’t address where people camping are supposed to go.

Currently, Multnomah County can shelter from 1,400 to 1,500 people year-round. There were about 4,000 people experiencing homelessness in Multnomah County in 2019, the last time there was a finalized count.
