Summary

The measure revises Oregon law to tighten licensing criteria for child‑caring agencies and gives the Department of Human Services broader authority to suspend, revoke, or condition licenses when abuse, neglect, financial mismanagement, or non‑cooperation is found. It also requires agencies to meet staffing, financial and care standards, report restraints, and allows emergency orders and investigations to protect children. The bill failed to become law and is now at the governor’s desk.
