Английская Википедия:82nd Oregon Legislative Assembly
Шаблон:Use mdy dates Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Infobox Legislative Session The 82nd Oregon Legislative Assembly is the current session of the Oregon Legislature. It began January 9, 2023.
The Democratic Party of Oregon holds a majority in both chambers, but no longer holds a supermajority. Democrats lost one senate seat in the 2022 Oregon State Senate election, resulting in a 17–13 majority, and lost two seats in the 2020 Oregon House of Representatives election, resulting in a 35–25 majority.[1]
Senate
The Oregon State Senate is composed of 17 Democrats, 12 Republicans, and one Independent. Senator Art Robinson is registered as a Republican, but caucuses with Independent Brian Boquist.[1][2]
Senate President: Rob Wagner (D-19 Lake Oswego)
President Pro Tempore: James Manning Jr. (D–7 Eugene)
Majority Leader: Kate Lieber (D-14 Beaverton)
Minority Leader: Tim Knopp (R-27 Bend)
Events
To prevent passage of bills related to abortion and gun control by the Democratic majority, ten Republican senators took advantage of the quorum requirement in the Oregon Constitution that requires two-thirds of senators be present and did not attend sessions for six weeks, preventing any Senate business from occurring.[4] This action triggered Oregon Ballot Measure 113, passed by voters in 2022, which disqualifies members with ten unexcused absences from serving in the legislature following their current term.[5] The Democratic leadership eventually made concessions to the bills to allow the session to resume.[6]
House
The Oregon House of Representatives is composed of 35 Democrats and 25 Republicans. Republicans gained one seat from the previous session.[1][2]
Speaker:Dan Rayfield (D-16 Corvallis)
Speaker Pro Tempore: Paul Holvey (D-8 Eugene)
Majority Leader: Julie Fahey (D-14 Eugene)
Minority Leader: Vikki Breese-Iverson (R-59 Prineville)
