Description

Gov. Tina Kotek addresses reporters after lawmakers ended the 2026 legislative session on March 6.

Most everyone seems to agree that House Bill 4177, which aims to clarify public meetings law, will need fixes in a future legislative session. Lawmakers have recognized that the bill, which passed the Legislature last week and awaits the governor’s signature, may sacrifice too much of the public’s right to scrutinize government in favor of letting elected officials share information more efficiently.
