Description

Oregon has given developers $1.4 billion to fund affordable housing as the cost of developing each subsidized apartment has nearly doubled.

But thanks to a carve-out in its public records law, the state doesn’t have to provide the details of that spending.

Rob Davis, an investigative reporter at ProPublica, joins us with the story.
