LPRO provides nonpartisan public policy research, analysis, and development on a wide range of topics at the request of legislators, legislative committees, and task forces. Lawmakers can contact LPRO to submit a research request or to schedule a research consultation.

LPRO analysts use a variety of research tools and methods to gather and process information that includes:

document research to gather policy-relevant information for members by searching databases, professional and academic journals, books, government publications, and source material;
field research such as speaking with public officials, finding unpublished reports or data, or interviewing individuals to gather contextual and historical information to understand policy issues;
legal research by reviewing Oregon statutes and amendments, session laws, administrative rules, and preparing legislative history on policies and statutory programs;
statistical analysis using existing data to analyze specific policy issues;
data mapping to show how policies or their impacts may vary geographically; and
conduct surveys to inform policy development for task forces and workgroups.
