As summer heat continues, is Oregon doing enough for people in solitary confinement?

Amid ongoing triple-digit temperatures and heat advisories, Oregon's prisons are struggling without central air conditioning, particularly affecting inmates in solitary confinement. This lack of adequate cooling raises serious concerns about the state's responsibility to ensure humane conditions, especially for those already isolated. As the heat persists, the situation underscores broader issues regarding prison infrastructure and the urgent need for reforms to protect vulnerable populations from extreme temperatures. This situation is not just a logistical issue but a human rights concern that demands immediate attention.
