Legislative Assembly of Oregon

The Legislative Assembly of Oregon is the state's lawmaking body, composed of two chambers: the Oregon House of Representatives and the Oregon Senate. Its primary role is to create, amend, and pass laws that govern Oregon. Members are elected by residents of the state, and the Assembly meets regularly to discuss issues, approve budgets, and make decisions on policies affecting Oregonians. This legislative process ensures that the state's laws reflect the needs and priorities of its citizens, operating within a system of checks and balances alongside the governor and courts.
