Lisa Assumption, director of the Oregon Parks and Recreation Department, testified the change would give rangers the option to keep home addresses confidential while performing official duties. \"Our uniform park rangers often work alone in remote areas enforcing park rules,\" Assumption said, describing an incident in which a ranger who was assaulted later received court paperwork at home and learned the assailant then had the ranger’s home address. Assumption told the committee that the bill would add OPRD rangers to the list of employees already eligible under current practice — including employees of DOJ, OLCC, Oregon Youth Authority, Department of Corrections and law enforcement — and that the department “would like to provide the option for our employees to keep their home address confidential.” She also said the bill has no fiscal or revenue impact.

Tom Holt, representing the Society of Professional Journalists, testified in opposition “as written.” Holt said the bill’s current language could allow any employee of the Parks Department to request the substitution and that the SPJ seeks narrower language to protect open records principles. He told the committee the agency has agreed to work with the Society on narrowing the language and that both parties were \"happy to work with them on an amendment.\" The committee took no vote during the hearing; the public hearing was closed and the meeting adjourned.

Melissa reported the committee had reached the end of its agenda after the HB 2922 hearing. The transcript records no committee motion or vote on HB 2922 during the meeting; the department and SPJ indicated a willingness to negotiate narrower language.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","House Committee On Rules 02/17/2025","oneSentenceSummary","The House Committee on Rules held a public hearing Feb. 17 on House Bill 2922, which would allow Oregon Parks and Recreation Department employees to request that the DMV list an agency address instead of their home address.","taxTitle","Rules, House of Representatives, Committees, Legislative, Oregon","taxId",18187,"location","Oregon","headline","","shortSummary",{"_33":77,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":78,"_41":79,"_43":80,"_45":44,"_47":81,"_49":82,"_51":83,"_53":84,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":85,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":86,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":72,"_73":74,"_75":74},6666555,"Committee adopts resolution honoring Ralph Groener, speakers highlight civil-rights and land-use work",690,1782000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=2323664-5fee45671a28e7898068df53f534e96d&start=1782&end=2472","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/2323664-5fee45671a28e7898068df53f534e96d/thumbnail_1782000.jpg","/articles/6666555/Oregon/Committee-adopts-resolution-honoring-Ralph-Groener-speakers-highlight-civil-rights-and-land-use-work","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6666555-64c082a33e3a77fd6ecd4cd7f9ddada1/orig.mp4?Expires=1771137474&Signature=kcNDe5W4g~P1MVh-XQEVvWoywlP5qD7YmohIknil6-6vK6B9D1UWnkdURi3z3uT4j1zC6TsHz~81TQ~ZVw2ucRFMUehaLtYpTRFud99aMJuTiJ5EgFbzukTfRTmHA91BAJ74Iaq4JXwK39p1siJzoFxsMR6mzDJAoH25bzXxeuPKkpqvWlMwysN8vbEwmtjx3bp4dJuIZOzybuB1O9hIbQfj0JfIjAy9bF~pVFjr7qfKBWaRRrHfwuboVtkBvKwbu6q3ePmrUY7O0XJaU6n1vmQxEqR64DrkTWlLGicOg0518ZayOR8cImVCJ69jgJjRT1u3j7NO-5x8eKbdkbGG2w__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The House Committee on Rules adopted House Concurrent Resolution 13 on Feb. 17 to recognize the life and public contributions of Ralph Groener.

Representative Anessa Hartman, sponsor of the resolution, told the committee Groener “was a dedicated public servant, fierce advocate for justice, and a lifelong resident of Oregon City.” Hartman noted that Groener was an original cosponsor of early gay‑rights legislation in 1973 that “prohibited employment discrimination against gay and lesbian Oregonians,” and that he helped pass Senate Bill 100, the 1973 land‑use law that established urban growth boundaries and the Department of Land Conservation and Development, according to her testimony.

Family members and longtime colleagues described Groener as a statesman and a persistent advocate for older Oregonians and public employees. Chris Groener, his son, said his father “taught me how to disagree without being disagreeable” and recounted Groener’s decades of public service including Clackamas County and the Clackamas Community College Board. Joe Basler of Oregon ASK ME and other witnesses noted Groener’s work on Project Independence and advocacy for seniors and public‑employee issues.

In the work session Vice Chair Pham moved HCR 13 “to the floor with a B adopted recommendation.” The committee conducted a roll-call vote recorded in the transcript; members named in the record voting in the affirmative include Representative Bossard Davis, Representative Elmer, Representative Kraft, Representative Valderrama, Vice Chair Drazen, Vice Chair Pham and Chair Bowman. The chair announced the motion adopted and assigned Representative Hartman as the carrier.

Testimony and the resolution emphasize Groener's role in early civil‑rights legislation, land‑use policymaking and long service to the state and county. Committee staff reported no fiscal or revenue impact for the resolution before adoption.","House Concurrent Resolution 13 honoring Ralph Groener was adopted by the House Rules committee on Feb. 17 after testimony noted his early sponsorship of anti‑employment‑discrimination legislation, work on land‑use law and long public service.",{"_33":88,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":89,"_41":90,"_43":91,"_45":92,"_47":93,"_49":94,"_51":95,"_53":96,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":97,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":98,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":72,"_73":74,"_75":74},6666559,"Committee adopts resolution honoring former Rep.

Representative Christine Drazen introduced the resolution, saying Martin “was a dedicated public servant” who served in the Oregon House from 1967 to 1978, including terms as speaker pro tem and House Republican leader. She asked the committee to support HCR 10 to recognize his long record of public service.

Multiple former colleagues, staffers and mentees spoke in support. Dan Simmons called Martin “a most intelligent, hardworking, and yet very patient mentor” who influenced careers across legislative and policy staffs. Gary Bauer described Martin’s early career and contributions to natural-resources policy, campaigns and bipartisan relationship-building, saying Martin used dinners and gatherings to “put Democrats and Republicans together so that they'd get to know each other.” Cindy Robert, Kelsey Wilson, Kylie Grno and others described Martin’s role as a consistent mentor and employer who helped launch careers in lobbying and public affairs. \"Roger was kind and loyal, and we all benefited from that,\" Cindy Robert said.

At the work session Melissa reported HCR 10 has no fiscal or revenue impact. Vice Chair Drazen moved HCR 10 to the floor “with a B adopted recommendation.” The committee then took a roll-call vote; members recorded in the transcript include Vice Chair Drazen, Vice Chair Pham and Chair Bowman voting in the affirmative. The committee chair announced HCR 10 was adopted and assigned Vice Chair Drazen as the carrier to the House floor.

Supporters noted numerous policy contributions listed in the resolution and in testimony — including work on transportation, light rail, prison reform and mentoring younger public servants — and said Martin's efforts shaped decades of Oregon policy. The committee's action was procedural; no fiscal impact was recorded.","The House Committee on Rules on Feb. 17 adopted House Concurrent Resolution 10 honoring Roger Martin for his legislative career and public-service contributions; colleagues and former staffers offered memories at a public hearing.",{"_33":100,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":101,"_41":102,"_43":103,"_45":103,"_47":104,"_49":105,"_51":106,"_53":107,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":108,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":109,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":72,"_73":74,"_75":74},6666563,"House Rules committee advances resolution honoring Linn County soldier Shaughnessy Noble",0,2112000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=2323664-5fee45671a28e7898068df53f534e96d&start=2112&end=2112","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/2323664-5fee45671a28e7898068df53f534e96d/thumbnail_2112000.jpg","/articles/6666563/Oregon/House-Rules-committee-advances-resolution-honoring-Linn-County-soldier-Shaughnessy-Noble","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6666563-a5dc1e7d0eae737b33d7c6782eb3caaa/orig.mp4?Expires=1771137474&Signature=GKUJhw5VpUXENY43BLVx3fc4lTQd2dntNg-B~UEu7j-M-hvyx3bJ3w53NqZuhw5fik1vPGZDeeW2r3kvOlYy6DtiDy8iE4CJs4scp8aDURCAuSGyWasqg-viJdu0xhWOW3wnxjvt7s-314QggzPdR-I2mp4Ex52Qw-85gnhpa4~9OmnJH0TGDRvs8D2TGHPQEtNqg5P4ciOLtZVgRmFF5mANmzAAjB6CuxcT4s7eyRCJHJHbAaFcjiJ4ci01TjA37YxSYMQIedPSWxL1D-hrzckpEIlJT-nnSS-eD50Kfu3IbJ4Sy82xW1QEazyecGJ-Uzz1TCI8lzlmMkHMPm-Gkw__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The House Committee on Rules advanced House Concurrent Resolution 1 on Feb. 17 to recognize and honor Private First Class Shaughnessy Lauren Noble for his military service.

Representative Shelly Bossart Davis, who sponsored the resolution, told the committee that Noble grew up in Linn County, graduated from West Albany High School in 1990, trained at Fort Leonard Wood and, when the Persian Gulf crisis developed, “voluntarily joined the United States Army to serve in Operation Desert Storm.” She said Noble deployed to Saudi Arabia in January 1991 and “contracted a viral infection and passed away in April 1991.”

Ramona Day, Noble’s sister, and other family members told the committee about his childhood in Sweet Home, family memories and the family’s decision to bury him locally. “He cared enough about a family member to take time out of his day to help me,” Day said, describing how Noble supported her. Brad Lindsey, speaking for the family’s supporters and as a veteran, urged members to approve the resolution so “we all can have a sign at Sweet Home on Highway 20 so Shawn’s sisters, brother, nephews, and nieces will always know he is watching over them.”

In work session action, Representative Bossard Davis moved HCR 1 “to the floor with a B adopted recommendation.” The committee took a roll-call vote; members recorded in the transcript as voting yes included Representative Elmer, Representative Kupe, Representative Valderrama, Vice Chair Graziano, Vice Chair Fagan and Chair Vogel. The committee chair announced, “The motion is adopted.” Representative Bossard Davis was assigned as the carrier to the House floor.

The resolution cites Noble’s service and the family requested a roadside memorial sign; family members said they declined burial at Arlington National Cemetery and chose a local gravesite in Sweet Home. The committee recorded a no fiscal and no revenue impact on the resolution before adopting it.","The House Committee on Rules on Feb. 17 advanced House Concurrent Resolution 1 to honor Private First Class Shaughnessy Lauren Noble, a Linn County native who served during Operation Desert Storm and died in service in April 1991.","actionData","errors"]
