On Friday, June 27th, Oregon legislature adjourned sine die from the 2025 legislative session. While several gun control bills were considered this year, Senate Bill 243, the gun control omnibus package, was the only bill to pass and advance to Governor Tina Kotek's desk.
SB 243 is an omnibus gun-control bill that includes elements of other pending anti-gun legislation, including: SB 696, creating the crime of unlawful transport, manufacture, or transfer of a "rapid-fire activator;" SB 698, gun-free zone expansion; and HB 3075, which implements portions of Ballot Measure 114 through legislative action.
Fortunately, House Bill 3076 was defeated on the House floor in the final days of session. HB 3076 would have imposed significant restrictions and penalties on federal firearm licensees, including 24-hour video surveillance, even for home-based FFLs.
