Gov. Tina Kotek speaks at a media March 2025 availability with Speaker of the House Julie Fahey and Senate President Rob Wagner. Democrats have struggled to advance Senate Bill 1599 over the last week amid resistance from Republicans and several members of their own party.

Oregon Secretary of State Tobias Read on Wednesday warned top lawmakers that if they did not pass a contentious tax referendum bill by the end of the day, they would risk denying voters a “fair and equal chance” to participate in the democratic process leading up to the May election.
