Enough is enough, says a bipartisan group of Oregon legislators about the torrent of bills filed this session. They introduced a proposal Wednesday that would limit each lawmaker to no more than 25 per session. House Bill 2006 is the Legislature’s attempt to rein in the record number of bills filed this session — more than 3,500, which is at least a 25-year high.

A bill that would have granted judges the discretion to lower the seriousness of some misdemeanor offenses — so they would no longer be crimes but instead “violations” punishable by fines — died in committee this week. House Bill 2469 faced powerful opposition from prosecutors, who said it would have decriminalized a long list of crimes by allowing judges on a case-by-case basis to treat them as mere violations, similar to speeding tickets.
