Multnomah County, Oregon, which contains the city of Portland and is responsible for prosecuting criminal activity in the city, is looking to remove gender-related language from its charter.

Measure 26-230, also known as the Gender Neutral Charter Amendment, if approved, would adopt terms like "the sheriff" to refer to a particular position within the county, rather than one that associates the office with a particular gender.
