The Oregon Interim Committee on the Third Special Session of 2020 will hold remote meetings on Thursday, December 17 at 6 pm and Saturday, December 19 at 10 am. Among other things will be accepting public testimony of LC-18 relating to residential tenancies. 

There will be the opportunity to provide written or oral testimony to the following two remote hearings in Salem tomorrow,  Thursday, December 17th, 2020, at 6 pm and Saturday, December 19th at 10 am.

  3. It requires a current funding source that does not exist.
  4. It exposes the State to significant takings claims in court.
