Oregon Senate Press Releases
Senate Republican Leader’s Statement on Continued Violence and Chaos in Portland
“The Portland City Council continues to drag their feet on addressing this crime spike. The Multnomah County District Attorney refuses to do his job and has rejected the vast majority of riot cases. Because Portland defunded their gun violence unit, causing an officer shortage, almost half of the murderers this year have not been arrested.…

Senate Republican Leader’s Statement on the Passage of Gerrymandered Congressional Redistricting Plan
“The law requires us to keep communities of interest together in the redistricting process. The only community of interest this map seeks to keep together are Democrat voters. In no world does it make sense for Bend and Portland to be in the same district. Spreading out urban voters by having four districts that include…
Democrats March Forward with Gerrymandered Plan to Entrench Their Own Power
“As written, this plan will rig the next 10 years of election to favor Democrats,” Senator Republican Leader Fred Girod (R-Lyons) said. “Fifty percent of Oregon’s congressional representatives will serve the City of Portland, but only 15% of Oregon’s population live in Portland. The urban-rural divide will continue to grow wider under this plan. Today…

Oregon House Press Releases
House Republicans respond to congressional redistricting map court challenge
“Gerrymandering is cheating. Oregon Democrats want a map that protects incumbents and silences the voices of Oregonians. This challenge is an opportunity for the courts to fix the political gerrymandering and create maps that truly represent Oregon.”

Rigged redistricting process fails Oregon
“These partisan maps are a wake-up call for Oregonians. They know Democrats had to cheat to get these maps across the floor. Democrats in Oregon have passed rigged political maps that will guarantee super-sized majorities in the legislature and immediate control of more than 80 percent of Oregon’s congressional seats. They should be ashamed that…
House Republicans call for renewed commitment to collaboration following pause in legislative session

House Democrats form new partisan committee to pass illegal gerrymandered map
“The Speaker has created a new partisan committee to force through the Democrats’ illegal congressional redistricting map. She lied and broke her promise not just to us but to Oregonians. She just sold the soul of our state for Democrats’ political gain. She’s determined to gerrymander Oregon’s congressional maps. Republicans have been at the table…
