I know it is hard to know what information to trust with all the information and misinformation we experience in our lives today, especially during a presidential election. Yours is a difficult job to sort through it all to make an informed decision. And while I know it is hard, I know you can and will do it. We recognize that with unlimited sources of information it can be challenging to find informa- tion that is accurate and trustworthy. Fortunately, there are some simple questions you can ask yourself to help identify misinformation: 1) Is there any data or evidence presented to support the information? 2) Does this information seem designed to push my political buttons? 3) Is there something about this information that doesn’t seem right or too bizarre to be true? 4) Who is sharing this information? 5) Does this individual or group have an agenda? Be an informed voter and don’t believe everything you see or hear.

In addition to the standard policy and budget committees, the Oregon House of Representatives will have new committees in the upcoming session to address timely issues, including wildfire recovery, redistricting, institutional reform of the Legislature, as well as subcommittees focusing on COVID-19 response, equitable policing and the return of a policy committee dedicated to early childhood issues. “Oregonians are facing crises that demand urgent action. The House is ready to lead on the issues that matter most in people’s lives right now. We also need to create the space to have a focused conversation about long-term, transformational changes to modernize the people’s legislature,” Speaker Kotek said. “I’m grateful for the diverse perspectives that my colleagues will bring as we all work together to help Oregonians navigate the big challenges that lie ahead.” Speaker Kotek communicated directly with every returning and new member of the Oregon House of Representatives before deciding on committee assignments, taking the time to weigh and discuss their priorities, interests and notable experience. She also consulted with both caucus leaders before finalizing the assignments. The House will convene on Monday, January 11 to swear in members.

  • Legislative Update
    LEGISLATIVE UPDATE Prepared for OAFP April 4, 2021 HB 2510 – Safe Gun Storage The House Health Committee passed this bill on party lines. It would require gun owners to lock their firearms, and make them liable for injuries caused by a firearm stored unsecurely. Rep. Cedric Hayden (R-Roseburg) told a story about his rural constituents responsibly using firearms in their own defense, saying, “I’m very concerned about my rural constituents’ ability to protect their own.” Rep. Christine Drazan (R-Canby) said she was against the bill and had concerns about working this type of legislation remotely. She said her office received over 7000 emails on gun legislation before the Legislature, including this bill, largely opposing it. Committee Chair Rachel Prusak (D-Tualatin) responded that her office also received lots of public input on this bill, largely in favor. The bill now goes to the House floor. SB 772 – Naturopath Pay Parity The Senate Health Committee held a public hearing on this bill, which would require individual and group insurance policies to pay naturopaths the same as other providers, using the same methodology. Dr. Jeff Clark, Oregon Association of Naturopathic Physicians, told the Committee that health insurers refuse to negotiate with naturopathic doctors on rates. He said Healthnet “shamelessly” pays naturopaths 20%, Moda 40%, and BlueCross BlueShield 60% of what they pay other providers. Dr. Clark clarified that SB 722 does not lock in a fee-for-service model, and an amendment is being drafted to remove the emergency clause in order to give insurers more time to implement the new pay structure if passed.

    WDC, 7 Nelson Street, Plymouth, MA, 02360 T +(508) 746-2522 F +(508)746-2537 E [email protected] W whales.org WDC is a registered 501(c)3 non-profit organization. House Committee on Energy and Environment Oregon State Legislature 900 Court St. NE Salem, OR 97301 March 5, 2019 Chair: Representative Ken Helm Vice-Chairs: Representative E. Werner Reschke, Representative Sheri Schouten Members: Representative Lynn Findley, Representative Andrea Salinas, Representative Janeen Sollman, Representative Marty Wilde, Representative Anna Williams, Representative Jack Zika. Dear Chair Helm, Vice-Chair Reschke, Vice-Chair Schouten, and Committee members: Whale and Dolphin Conservation (WDC) is the leading global charity dedicated to the conservation and protection of whales, dolphins, and their habitats. As the Jessica Rekos Fellow for Orca Conservation, my work focuses on the protection and recovery of the critically endangered Southern Resident orca population, a unique community of orcas that lives in the transboundary waters of the U.S. and Canada, and off the coasts of Washington, California, and Oregon. Based in Newport, Oregon, I also work to ensure our coastal waters are safe, protected, and free from threats for the many species of marine mammals who live off the Oregon Coast. Today I am writing in support of Senate Bill (SB) 256, to protect our territorial seas, coast, and marine life from the dangers of oil and gas drilling activities. SB 256 repeals Oregon’s current sunset on the moratorium for oil, gas, and sulfur leasing in our state territorial seas and prohibits the Department of State Lands (DSL) from furthering offshore oil and gas exploration and drilling activities.

  • Policy Session Worksheet
    CLACKAMAS COUNTY BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS Policy Session Worksheet Presentation Date: 09/09/20 Approx. Start Time: 2:30 p.m. Approx. Length: 30 mins. Presentation Title: 2020 State Legislative Session Reviews Department: Public and Government Affairs (PGA) Presenters: Sue Hildick, PGA Director; Chris Lyons, and Trent Wilson Other Invitees: Department Directors and County Elected Officials WHAT ACTION ARE YOU REQUESTING FROM THE BOARD? This is an informational update on Clackamas County’s advocacy and accomplishments during the 2020 State Legislative Sessions, including the Regular Session and two Special Sessions. No action is required. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: The 81st Oregon Legislative Assembly began on February 3, 2020, and adjourned sine die on March 5, three days ahead of the maximum 35 days allowed in the state constitution for even- numbered-years, also known as short sessions. It ended with the passage of only 3 bills, following a partisan impasse over climate change legislation. The Public & Government Affairs Department (PGA) was tasked with advancing the county’s 2020 state legislative agenda, which outlined the county’s key policy and funding priorities at the Oregon State Legislature. In addition to providing legislative support to the Board of County Commissioners (BCC) and county departments, PGA worked collaboratively with dozens of external partners during the 2020 session to advance the county’s legislative agenda. These groups included state legislators and their staff; legislative committee staff; state agency officials; various state lobby associations, including the Association of Oregon Counties (AOC) and League of Oregon Cities (LOC); and other regional and local government partners. Additionally, Clackamas County declared a state of Emergency on February 27 to respond to the COVID-19 Pandemic, and as the state and other counties did the same in the early days of the pandemic the state legislature scrambled to respond to projected statewide impacts, most notably budgetary losses at all levels of government.
