But the Oregon GOP is experiencing some turbulence following the resignation of its former chairman, the Rev. Jerry Cummings, on Wednesday, April 9. With Cummings' resignation, former Oregon Vice Chair Connie Whelchel took over the position.

President Donald Trump announced agreements with four top law firms he had targeted for punishment.
