The Low-Income Housing Tax Credit is delivering market-rate housing, rather than housing for the poorest households. In one Portland suburb, a subsidized two-bedroom can cost up to $1,675, while the equivalent market-rate apartment is $1,525. w/ @opb.org

Babies were found with dead brain tissue similar to what follows cancer and the kind of bleeding seen after a stroke. Their autopsies came to the same conclusion: Their deaths could have been prevented with a long-standard vitamin shot. Revisit @deldeib.bsky.social's story, a Sidney Award winner:
