The Oregon State Legislature convened on April 10, 2025, with a quorum confirmed and several significant legislative actions underway. The session began with a warm welcome to the youth from the Boys and Girls Club, who were visiting the Capitol, highlighting the importance of engaging the next generation in civic matters.

During the meeting, the Senate communicated the passage of several bills, including Senate Bills 463, 540, 1509, 2303, 8702, and 10901, along with the adoption of Senate Concurrent Resolutions 21 and 30. Notably, Senate Concurrent Resolution 21 commemorates the 100th anniversary of Multnomah Falls Lodge, while Senate Concurrent Resolution 30 designates April 10, 2025, as Purple Up Day for the Month of the Military Child, recognizing the contributions of military families.

The House then proceeded to the third reading of House Bill 3336, which focuses on regulations concerning electric companies in Oregon.
