Pamplin Media Group - Legislature opens 2021 session with a heavy infusion of reality

Legislature opens 2021 session with a heavy infusion of reality Ritual and rhetoric are subdued; members of color reach historic high in Oregon. The new Oregon Legislature was light on the usual ritual and rhetoric during its opening day on Monday, Jan. 11 though they were present but heavy on the realities that have reshaped state politics during the past year. All 60 representatives and 17 new senators took their oaths from Chief Justice Martha Walters. But unlike typical opening days which have been compared to the first day of school staff, families and friends were largely absent from the Capitol in Salem because of social distancing due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
