Thank you for visiting my legislative website.
I am honored to serve residents of southern Jackson County for a fifth term in the Oregon Legislature. House District 5 spans from the Applegate to the Greensprings and includes Ashland, Talent, Phoenix, a southern portion of Medford, Jacksonville and Ruch. I'm convinced my district has the state's most passionate and involved constituents.
I am honored to currently serve as Chair of the House Committee on Housing and Homelessness. I'm also a member of the House Committee on Climate, Energy and Environment, House Committee on Agriculture, Land Use, Natural Resources, and Water, and the House Committee on Revenue. Core policy areas that I will focus on in this session include affordable housing, climate resilience, wildfire recovery, broadband access, and… beavers! As Assistant Majority Leader for Policy in 2025, I'm also responsible for helping my Democratic caucus identify and focus on the policy and budget priorities we want to complete during the session.
Please Participate in the Legislative Process!
Because public engagement is imperative for developing policy that supports and benefits Oregonians across the state, I encourage you participate. OLIS—Oregon Legislative Information System provides extensive detail about every bill. To follow a specific bill, you can “e-subscribe" with your email address and receive notifications as it moves through the legislative process. Likewise, you can follow the activities of any House or Senate committee by e-subscribing.
Please note that the Capitol is still undergoing extensive construction that has closed many areas of the building. However, it is easier than ever to testify remotely at a public hearing. To learn more about how you can search for and follow bills, watch committee hearings or floor testimony, and submit testimony remotely or in person, please use this Legislative Session Participation Guide or reach out to my office for assistance.
A thousand thanks for your support! I am so honored to be your voice for Southern Oregon. You can stay informed about my progress on priorities and receive constituent news by e-subscribing to my newsletter here on my home page.
As always, please be in touch with your concerns, questions and feedback.
Best,
Representative Pam Marsh
Oregon House District 5
