In Oregon, Democrats have entered a remarkable position of power, achieving dominance not just through a trifecta of Governor and legislative chambers, but through a supermajority. This supermajority allows them to raise or adopt new taxes without requiring any support from Republicans, significantly increasing their legislative leverage and control.
Governor Tina Kotek, having previously served as House speaker, is expected to work in concert with Democrats in the Legislature, suggesting that cooperative governance on key issues is likely to benefit the party's agenda. This alignment offers them a unique opportunity to implement their policy goals effectively.
