Oregon Signature Timeline for Bill 1511
Oregon Signature Timeline for Bill 1511The Senate and House signed off on March 2 2016. https://olis.leg.state.or.us/liz/2016R1/Measures/Overview/SB1511 The Governor has 30 days to sign off, or it becomes law automatically. "Oregon: The governor must sign or veto legislation within 5 days of transmittal (excluding Saturday and Sunday), or it becomes law without his/her signature. For legislation transmitted to the governor within the last 5 days of the session, the governor must act within 30 days of adjournment (excluding Saturday and Sunday), or the legislation becomes law without being signed." https://www.statescape.com/resources/legislative/bill-signing-deadlines.aspx The recent session of the Oregon legislature adjourned on March 4 2016. https://www.oregonlegislature.gov/calendar. I think this means 1511 must be signed or vetoed by Kate Brown by Sunday April 3. Excluding Saturday and Sunday, the last day for her signature would be Friday April 1. Given the ruling by OHA yesterday, I would think it unlikely that the governor will veto 1511.
