March 19th was the deadline for bills to be submitted during Oregon’s 2021 Legislative Session. Bills that are still “alive” will need to pass out of their committee of origin by the next deadline, which is April 13th.
AOR is pleased to announce that Sustainable Oregon 2021 will be held on October 20-22, 2021. We are seeking passionate and effective storytellers who would like to share their innovations, solutions, and stories of change. The annual AOR conference is an opportunity for new and old colleagues in the recycling, waste prevention and sustainable materials management industries to connect about ideas, learn what’s on the horizon, and be inspired.

We want to thank all our members who attended our first virtual 2020 Sustainable Oregon Conference, and who tuned into the AOR 2021 Legislative Preview on January 19th, 2021.
The 2021 Legislative Session is one of the busiest in recent memory. There are several pieces of legislation that AOR's Legislative Committee has already made recommendations on to the AOR Board. As of today, here is the list of bills that AOR will support or oppose. This is only a partial list of proposed legislation that impact our industry this session. The AOR Legislative Committee will continue to monitor other bills and provide additional recommendations as those bills make their way through committees througout the session.
