Senate Walkout Day 13

(Salem, OR) -- A group of Republican and Independent Senators in the Oregon Legislature continued their walkout for a 13th straight day yesterday. They're keeping the Senate from forming a quorum and thereby preventing it from taking action on bills. It's a protest against bills sponsored by Democrats for reproductive health care and gun control. They're also disputing bills that aren't written in a simple manner. 10 legislators now have 10 or more unexcused absences and won't be allowed to run for re-election.
