TU’s Summary of Oregon’s 2025 Legislative Session
TU testifies in Senate Rules as part of a panel supporting SB 1153, the Governor’s bill related to an environmental review for water right changes.
From TU’s Oregon Policy Director James Fraser via Wild Steelheader United:
The Oregon Legislature wrapped up its 2025 legislative session on June 27th. Trout Unlimited is pleased to report that the Legislature passed some important policy and budget measures for fish and rivers this year, though an important update to Oregon’s water code stalled out in the final days of session. As in previous years, we effectively defended against some counter-productive natural resource bills, too.
TU’s James Fraser testifies in the Senate about the ecological needs of native fish and effects of low streamflows upon them.
