Overview

STATE BUDGET
Oregon operates on a biennial budget cycle. The biennium budget begins on July 1 of an odd-numbered year and ends on June 30 of the next odd-numbered year. The Governor submits a proposed budget in December and is expected to sign the budget at the end of June.
STATE LEGISLATURE
The Oregon Senate has 30 members who are elected to serve four-year terms; and the House of Representatives has 60 members elected to two-year terms. In odd numbered years, the legislative session starts on the second Monday in January and lasts up to 160 days. For even years, there is a short session of 35 days or less, beginning in February. Oregon Legislation does not carry over from year to year.
