| Oregon Legislature adjourns Monday |
|---|
| Budget, jobs and transportation among key challenges this year |
|---|
Posted June 30, 2009
The 75th Oregon Legislative Assembly adjourned at 9:45 p.m. Monday, a day earlier than planned.
The session was notable for the budget and employment challenges that faced the state. The Legislature worked for months to agree on ways to create jobs and balance budgets -- for both the 2007-2009 and 2009-2011 bienniums -- with lower-than-expected revenue. The Legislature also expanded health care coverage for uninsured children and launched a significant transportation program.
The Legislature had forecast that it would adjourn before July 1.
