Rep. Vicki Berger, Sen. Jackie Winters, and Rep. Kevin Cameron discuss February's legislative session at town hall
SALEM- The three Republican legislators representing Salem held a town hall Tuesday to discuss the recent legislative session.
The legislators, Sen. Jackie Winters, R-Salem, Rep. Vicki Berger, R-Salem, and Rep. Kevin Cameron, R-Salem, opened the meeting by discussing their experiences during February’s month-long special session.
Sen. Winters highlighted the legislation she passed, including a bill to protect wineries in the Willamette Valley and a memorial honoring a local doctor.
The two House members talked about how they signed their name onto several bills but did not present any themselves because they believe no major policy items should come out of the constitutionally titled “emergency session.”
The legislators fielded questions on the tax measures 66 and 67, PERS contract agreements, the state budget, kicker reform, and potential tax increases.
