Oregon – Official Release: Today, Governor Tina Kotek submitted a list of state board and commission reappointments to the Oregon Senate for confirmation. The Senate Committee on Rules is scheduled to consider the nominations during December Legislative Days, which run from December 10 through December 12.
“The individuals I am nominating for reappointment have conducted great work on behalf of our state,” Governor Kotek said. “I am grateful for their continued dedication to public service.”
The full list of nominees is available here. Each nomination is a reappointment for Senate confirmation.
The Governor makes appointments to over 250 Boards and Commissions representing a broad range of areas and issues for the State of Oregon. This also includes most major state agencies and departments headed by policy-making boards which are appointed by the Governor.
Members of Oregon State Boards and Commissions are vital participants in statewide decision-making and dedicated individuals have the opportunity to participate in developing a wide variety of important governmental policies. Major issues range from consumer protection, economic development, education, conservation, and health care — all of which are critical to the ongoing success of the State of Oregon.
The Governor is also committed to ensuring that all Boards and Commissions represent the growing age, racial and gender diversity of the state. This is an amazing opportunity to pool our collective viewpoints, visions, and hopes for Oregon — and all residents are welcome and encouraged to serve.
