Good morning, McMinnville.

A bill that would require landlords to refund deposits if a rental unit is uninhabitable has passed both the House and Senate and now heads to Gov. Tina Kotek’s desk for approval — the law would require refunds within five days or impose a fee unless delayed by emergencies.

Less than 12 hours before a shooting in Minnesota, the Oregon Legislature passed a bill (Senate Bill 224) to hide home addresses of elected officials and candidates, with the measure set to go into effect Jan.

1 if the governor signs it. House Speaker Julie Fahey and Senate President Rob Wagner led moments of silence to honor the victims as lawmakers voiced increased safety concerns.

House Bill 3819, signed last week, raised fines for unlicensed massage businesses from $1,000 to $5,000 and reclassified repeat violations as a felony—though dropped provisions allowing hearsay to be used in cutting off illicit operations.

Legislators and advocates noted the law may only partly curb the rise in sex trafficking spas and plan to revisit these measures in the next session.

Governor Kotek said Monday that she supports using the Rainy Day Fund interest to pay for wildfire mitigation and suppression while warning that lawmakers have not delivered a long-term funding solution before the session ends June 29.

She urged finding as much one-time funding as possible to keep our community safe—though she noted that the interest may change over time.
