Relating to investigations into alleged ethics law violations.

HB 2927 permits the Oregon Government Ethics Commission to extend the preliminary review phase of ethics complaints by up to 60 days. This change modifies the current 60-day limit for this initial review period, allowing the Commission to take up to 120 days total to determine whether to pursue a full investigation. The bill applies to all complaints involving alleged ethics or lobbying violations, directly affecting individuals and organizations subject to these investigations. It does not alter the complaint process but provides additional time for the Commission to evaluate evidence before deciding on a full investigation.
