Today is the last day for Oregonians to apply for a seat on the Oregon People’s Commission on Redistricting.
The People’s Commission will convene only if the Legislature misses its Sept. 27 deadline to pass a redistricting bill. If convened, the Commissioners will advise Oregon Secretary of State Shemia Fagan and her staff as they conduct public hearings on legislative redistricting. The Commissioners will attend all public hearings, hear testimony from Oregonians, and advise Fagan and her staff on redistricting.
Those seeking to serve on Oregon’s People’s Commission must complete the application at the Oregon Secretary of State’s website by Sept. 2. Applicants must be at least 16 years of age and must be an Oregon resident since at least April 1, 2020.
