Synopsis

Oregon Governor Kate Brown has called lawmakers into a special legislative session starting Wednesday. The goals of the session are far-reaching, including police accountability and the ongoing response to the COVID-19 pandemic. Lawmakers will also be impacted by restrictions in place to slow the spread of COVID-19. All of this adds up to a special session like none we’ve seen before.
