Open Data - Measure, Committee, District, and Legislator Information Available to the Public
The Oregon Legislature freely provides the legislative measure, committee, district, and legislative member data used in legislative systems. Below is a list of data types and access points.
Measure, Committee and Legislator Information
Oregon's Legislative
Open Data Protocol (OData) API provides complete and up-to-date session information. OData is an open protocol that allows the creation and consumption of queryable and interoperable RESTful APIs in a simple and standard way. The legislature's data model outlining exactly what data is available can be
found here (opens in a new tab).
GIS Data for Oregon Legislative and Congressional Elected Officials
This dataset provides Oregon’s legislative (Senate and House) and congressional district boundaries with the associated elected officials’ contact information. It is used in the
Find Your Legislator tool, which supports address-based lookup, and the dataset can be programatically queried using the
REST endpoint (REST documentation).
This spatial dataset has three layers senate districts, house districts, and congressional districts. Each layer contains the district number and the associated legislator’s contact details, including their party affiliation, address, phone number, email, website, and photo. All district boundaries were created using 2020 census blocks as specified in
Senate Bill 882 (2021) and
Senate Bill 881 (2021)
