About legislative sessions in Oregon

TheTenth Amendment of theU.S. Constitution declares that any power not already given to the federal government is reserved to the states and the people.^[22] State governments across the country use this authority to hold legislative sessions where a state's elected representatives meet for a period of time to draft and vote on legislation and set state policies on issues such as taxation, education, and government spending. The different types of legislation passed by a legislature may include resolutions,legislatively referred constitutional amendments, and bills that become law.

Article IV of the Oregon Constitution establishes when theOregon State Legislature, of which the House of Representatives is a part, is to meet. Section 10 of Article IV states that the Legislature will meet in regular session once every two years. The section goes on to establish starting dates for these sessions, but these dates have been changed by law (as the section allows).

Section 10 of Article IV also requires the presiding officers of both legislative houses to convene an emergency session of the Legislature when a majority of the members of each house request an emergency session.

Legislative roles and procedures

Every state legislature throughout the country features its own internal procedures that it uses to govern itself and how it interacts with other parts of state government. Ballotpedia's coverage of internal state legislative procedures includesveto overrides,the role of the legislature in the state budget, andprocedures for filling membership vacancies.

Veto overrides

See also:Veto overrides in state legislatures

State legislatures can override governors' vetoes. Depending on the state, this can be done during the regular legislative session, in a special session following the adjournment of the regular session, or during the next legislative session. The rules for legislative overrides of gubernatorial vetoes in Oregon are listed below.

How many legislators are required to vote for an override? Two-thirds of members present in both chambers.

How can vetoes be overridden after the legislature has adjourned?

Authority:Article V, Section 15b of theOregon Constitution.

Committees

See also:List of committees in Oregon state government

Every state legislature and state legislative chamber in the country contains several legislative committees. These committees are responsible for studying, amending, and voting on legislation before it reaches the floor of a chamber for a full vote. The different types of committees include standing committees, select or special, and joint.

• Standing committees are generally permanent committees, the names of which sometimes change from session to session.
• Select or special committees are temporary committees formed to deal with specific issues such as recent legislation, major public policy or proposals, or investigations.
• Joint committees are committees that feature members of both chambers of a legislature.

Ballotpedia covers standing and joint committees. The Oregon House of Representatives has 19 standing committees:

Cover of the 1857 Oregon Constitution

TheOregon Constitution lays out four different paths, in two different articles, for how to go about changing the state's constitution.

• Theconstitutional revision process is established inSection 2 of Article XVII.

• Section 1, Article IV, says that the people of the state can use aninitiated constitutional amendment to put an amendment before voters.

• An initiated amendment must be proposed "by a petition signed by a number of qualified voters equal to eight percent of the total number of votes cast for all candidates for Governor at the election at which a Governor was elected for a term of four years next preceding the filing of the petition."
• The petition must include the full text of the proposed amendment.
• The signatures must be filed "not less than four months before the election at which the proposed...amendment to the Constitution is to be voted upon."
• Article IV containsseveral restrictions on the initiative process such asSection 1b, which prohibitspay-per-signature.

• Section 1 of Article XVIII creates the procedures by which theOregon State Legislature can use alegislatively referred constitutional amendment to put an amendment before voters.

• Amendments can be proposed in either house of the state legislature.
• To earn a spot on the ballot, a "majority of all the members elected to each of the two houses" must vote in favor of a proposed amendment.
• The Legislature can put any such referred amendments on a special election ballot.
• If more than one amendment is proposed by the legislature, they must be voted on separately.

• Section 1 of Article XVIII also states that aconstitutional convention can only be held if "the law providing for such convention shall first be approved by the people on a referendum vote at a regular general election."

• The constitution does not define how such a referendum is to be put before voters.
• Possible ways might include acitizen-initiated question or a vote of the legislature.
