How a bill (maybe) becomes a law

from The Roundup Podcast Hosted by Jeff Eager

In today’s episode, I interview Oregon lawyer and lobbyist Mike Freese of Romain Freese, LLC. Mike spearheaded the successful effort in the just-completed legislative to allow all Oregonians to pump their own gas. We talk about the background on Oregon’s ban on self-service, and how the political stars aligned to allow an end to the ban this year. If you’re curious about how the legislature came to pass a bill that gave more freedom to Oregonians, for a change, take a listen. Note that the bill awaits Governor Kotek’s signature. It’s been assumed she would sign, but who knows? https://twitter.com/dirquez/status/1674129163727568896?s=20 Don’t worry, that’s it for self-serve gas content for a while. If you missed it, here’s my, uh, exuberant write-up from the weekend. Jeff This is a public episode.
