Legislative Affairs

The Oregon State Legislature

The top priority of the Oregon Bankers Association and the Community Banks of Oregon is advocacy. A key component of our advocacy program is representing Oregon's banks in the state Capitol. Every legislative session, we review and track hundreds of bills that could impact Oregon banks and their customers. 

Oregon Laws Impacting Oregon Banks

To view OBA's reports on laws impacting Oregon banks from prior Oregon Legislative Sessions, login to the members-only portal, then select Oregon Laws Impacting Banks from the Resources menu.


If you would like to get involved or have questions about state legislative activity, contact OBA's Government Affairs Director Kevin Christiansen at (503) 576-4123 or [email protected].
