Description

Oregon Department of Transportation Director Kris Strickler, left in orange, talks with Gov. Tina Kotek, right, and others during a cleanup at Sullivan’s Gulch in Portland. Strickler has come under fire from lawmakers this year but Kotek has stuck by the agency head, even as she’s shown others the door over headline-generating controversies.

When Gov. Tina Kotek took office, she pledged to hold state agencies accountable. Just over two years into her tenure, she’s proven she’s not afraid to fire people to do so.
