text: Clear back in 2008 when the state was wrangling with the feds over conditions at the Oregon State Hospital (which resulted in two new hospitals and a whole new approach to treatment) everyone involved wondered why they were not pursuing an Olmsted investigation as well. It was well known that Oregon was not meeting that federal standard. Hard to believe that the feds have waited this long to call the state on its sorry performance while the mentally ill have suffered. It really is unconscionable what we fail to do for some of our most vulnerable citizens.
