During Legislative Days, Committees hold informational hearings on topics that may lead to legislation in upcoming sessions, hear updates on previous implementations, listen to reports from state agencies and Task Forces, and keep current on the subject areas affecting Oregonians. The Senate may also convene to confirm the Governor's executive appointments.
You can access the Capitol from the State Street entrance during Legislative Days. See the map below.
Since Oregon voters adopted annual sessions in 2010, the Legislature meets for a maximum of 160 days in odd-numbered years and 35 days in even-numbered years. The period in between sessions is called the interim. The Legislature convenes periodically during the interim for Legislative Days. Legislative Days happen approximately every eight weeks and last for four days.
