As of this recording on May 6th, we are well into the 2025 Oregon Legislative session. And I, like many others, am still struggling to find a coherent throughline to the session.
And many climate justice advocates are increasingly wondering whether Oregon’s Democratic led government has given up on meaningful climate action. But there is still a lot that can happen in the next two months of the legislative session, and your voice really does matter.
To walk me through where things stand, and where we as citizens can make the greatest impact this session, I’m joined by my old boss, State Representative Mark Gamba.
Mark Gamba represents Oregon’s House District 41, which encompasses Milwaukie and parts of Southeast Portland. He is also one of Oregon’s most outspoken climate advocates, and one of my favorite returning guests.
