Oregon Republican state senators are boycotting and ultimately stalling floor sessions in response to far-left legislation that would allow minors to have abortions and trans procedures without parental consent.
“I conveyed in discussions over the weekend that Senate Republicans will end their protest to pass substantially bipartisan budgets and bills that are lawful and constitutional and that will benefit all Oregonians,” Knopp said in a statement on Monday.
“If Democrats thought we would facilitate an agenda that intentionally removes the right of parents, they were seriously mistaken,” addedDemocrats have gone too far.”
