Dear Rachel, thank you for keeping an eye out for dangerous invasive pests. Luckily, this one is a native long-horned beetle, Monochamus scutellatus, the white-spotted sawyer.
Thank you and best regards, Helmuth Rogg, Oregon Department of Agriculture

Location

I am unsure, but thinking this is a Asian Longhorned Beetle? It was at a residential property that is adjacent to a very large tract of forest along Caufield Creek in Oregon City.
