AGP Executive Report

Last update: 7 hours ago

U.S. Supreme Court Watch: The justices will decide whether “six-pack” juries are constitutional, a fight that could reshape criminal trials in states including Oregon after Ramos v. Louisiana pushed toward unanimous verdicts. Oregon Elections & Governance: Hermiston City Council will vote June 22 on referring charter changes to the Nov. 3 ballot, including ward-based council elections, shifting the municipal court judge to appointment, and clarifying city attorney oversight. Homelessness Policy: Pendleton will hold a June 29 public hearing on a proposed settlement over its “resting ordinance,” with a plan to replace the rule, waive fines, and set aside $120,000 for shelter/day services. Immigration & Local Risk: Marion County is appealing a dismissal of its lawsuit over conflicts between Oregon sanctuary/public records rules and federal immigration enforcement, arguing it faces costs and funding threats. Public Health: The CDC reports measles has spread to 41 jurisdictions with 2,104 confirmed cases in 2026, including three deaths. State Politics & Families: Gov. Tina Kotek signed HB 4022 making Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library permanent for Oregon children under 5. Safety & Community: Salem’s grand jury found a police officer justified in using deadly force during a hostage call at a homeless camp.
