The Coalition for Fair Budget Priorities is an association of hotels, some located in downtown Portland, that opposes significant public subsidies going to a proposed hotel that would support the Oregon Convention Center. The group, on a website operated by another company, uses the acronym "OUCH" -- Our Unfortunate Convention Hotel.
Fact-checking journalism is the heart of PolitiFact. Our core principles are independence, transparency, fairness, thorough reporting and clear writing. The reason we publish is to give citizens the information they need to govern themselves in a democracy.
In a world of wild talk and fake news, help us stand up for the facts.
