Abstract

This publication won the 2022 Douglas Yearwood Award for Research/Policy. House Bill 2355 (2017) mandated that by 2021, all Oregon law enforcement agencies must submit data regarding officer-initiated traffic and pedestrian stops to the Oregon Criminal Justice Commission, so the Commission could analyze the submitted data for evidence of racial or ethnic disparities on an annual basis. To accomplish these ends, the Commission, along with the Oregon State Police and the Oregon Department of Public Safety Standards and Training (DPSST), created the Oregon Statistical Transparency of Policing (STOP) Program. This is the third annual report to the Oregon Legislature by the STOP Program examining data received pursuant to HB 2355.
