Maddy summaryHB 3642 allows Oregon landlords to end month-to-month rental agreements without providing a reason after the first year of occupancy, removing previous restrictions. It also repeals limits on how much landlords can increase rent annually. This directly affects tenants in month-to-month leases and all renters regarding rent hike amounts. The bill changes state law to permit no-cause terminations (after year one) and eliminates rent increase caps, shifting more control to landlords.

Maddy summaryHB 3338 requires Oregon's Health Evidence Review Commission to evaluate gender-affirming treatments - including puberty blockers, hormone therapy, and specific surgeries - by August 2025, developing evidence-based guidelines for health providers, patients, and insurers. The commission must assess safety, efficacy, and evidence quality for these treatments across age groups, with a final report due by September 2026. The bill declares an emergency to expedite this process and expires on January 2, 2027. It directly affects healthcare providers, patients seeking gender-affirming care, and health insurers in Oregon by mandating a formal review of treatment protocols.
Maddy summaryHB 3979 prohibits strikes by Oregon public employees, including teachers, police, and other government workers, and requires labor disputes to be resolved through binding arbitration instead. The bill amends labor laws to mandate final decisions by a neutral third party for unresolved issues like wages, hours, and working conditions. It clarifies which topics qualify as negotiable "employment relations" (e.g., excluding school calendars or minor conduct rules) and defines key terms for dispute resolution. This directly changes how public employee contracts are negotiated, removing strike options as a bargaining tool.
