The Commission is expecting that the Governor and the Oregon Legislature will again take up the question of a state carbon cap during the short 2020 session. As complement to this legislative agenda, the Commission will be considering and making recommendations on complementary policies and actions to sustain and extend the state’s carbon reduction efforts, and adoption of long-deferred and more systematic adaptation measures. The Commission is devoting its January 30 meeting to consideration of needed climate change adaptation and preparation planning, including anticipation of possible climate migration concerns.
No resolutions are expected to be introduced or voted on at this meeting.
There will be a public comment opportunity beginning at approximately 4 p.m. Additional materials will be posted here prior to the meeting.
