Demand a Public Oversight Hearing on Oregon Judicial and Psychology Misconduct

The Issue

Oregon families are calling on the Oregon Legislature to urgently convene a public hearing modeled after the May 12, 2025 session in Arizona, where over 400 citizens gathered to address serious allegations of misconduct within their judiciary and psychological services. In Oregon, numerous families have been affected by decisions stemming from judicial and psychological evaluations that appear to lack transparency, accountability, and ethical adherence.

Recent cases have emerged highlighting questionable practices from the Oregon Board of Psychology and the Commission on Judicial Fitness. Families report experiencing biased decisions, lack of proper oversight, and feeling devoid of avenues for transparent redress. The call for this hearing is to shine a light on these grievances and pave the way for systemic improvements.

In Arizona's landmark session, affected individuals were given the platform to share their experiences, leading to a comprehensive review and reform recommendations that are being implemented. Oregon must adopt a similar approach to ensure justice and ethical practices are upheld, restoring public trust in our systems.

The public hearing should encompass detailed reports from both the Oregon Board of Psychology and the Commission on Judicial Fitness, followed by open testimony from affected families and stakeholders. Transparency in these processes is critical to ensuring all voices are heard, and necessary actions are taken.

We urge the Oregon Legislature to act promptly and schedule this oversight hearing to address these critical issues. Oregon deserves a judicial and psychological oversight system that is transparent, fair, and accountable. Please join us in demanding this necessary step forward by signing this petition.

Have you submitted a complaint to the Oregon Commission on Judicial Fitness, the Oregon Board of Psychology, or the Oregon State Bar against a GAL, Parent Coordinator, or court actor?

We’re collecting records to support this legislative call for public oversight.

Please sign the petition and comment with:

Name of the agency (CJFD, OBOP, OSB, etc.)
Date your complaint was submitted
Case number (if available)
Status (e.g., "Under Investigation", "Dismissed", "Pending Review")
If known: Date of next Board Meeting or review
💡 Your submission helps show that this is not an isolated problem — it’s systemic, and it demands legislative action.

🛑 Do NOT include personal identifying information about children or victims. Keep your entry focused on complaint data only.

Together, we can show the full scale of what's been ignored — and demand a public hearing.
