Editorial: Walkout proofing by Democrats may get a walkout
The changes Democrats want to make the Oregon Legislature walkout -proof may trigger another walkout.
The proposed changes include:
• Asking Oregonians to change the state constitution so the Legislature only needs a majority for a quorum instead of two -thirds of lawmakers present.
• Ask Oregonians to change the state constitution so lawmakers with 10 or more unexcused absences can’t run for reelection
• And things like blocking legislators from getting pay or not allowing them to use political contributions for unexcused absences.
