Description

The Portland City Council meets in public. A bill advancing at the Oregon Legislature would make it easier for members of local governments to talk privately with reporters, constituents or each other about the public's business.

A bill designed to make it easier for public officials to discuss public policies, personnel decisions or proposed expenditures in private with journalists, citizens and each other advanced at the Capitol Friday, even as key lawmakers raised concerns about harm to public transparency.
