The 2026 short legislative session is over. In just over a month, lawmakers passed so many bills it was nearly impossible to keep track of it all. They moved a gas tax vote to the May election. They spent big to keep the Trail Blazers in Portland. They filled state budget holes and even bought a waterfall. If you missed the action, we’re here to bring you up to speed.
