About these figures
Joint committees follow both chambers' rules for notice and posting; final action requires a majority of the Senate members appointed; no minority reports may be filed; co-chairs are appointed by the Speaker and the President. Senate Rules 8.10(4), 8.60(1); House Rule 8.05. Jurisdiction is set by referral practice and chamber rules; OLIS records the committee's name and type, not a written jurisdiction statement.

Evidence for this page
Committee terms, members, staff, meetings, and agenda items come from the Oregon Legislative Information System’s official record, observed 2026-09-01. OLIS committee codes are stable identifiers across sessions; a renamed committee keeps its code and the name history is listed. A code reused for a different body would appear here as one committee and requires review.
Meeting counts are scheduled meetings recorded by the system, including cancelled ones where marked. Referral counts require the measure history and are shown on decision pages. Edition dated August 31, 2026.
