Wingard update
Rep. Matt Wingard (R-Wilsonville) talks with the Wilsonville Chamber of Commerce's Governmental Affairs Commitee last week. Wingard says the special session that is expected to run through February is a trial run for asking voters to approve annual sessions.
With the February special Legislative session only one day old, Rep. Matt Wingard said last week he wasn’t impressed with the agenda. “Most of what will happen – if not everything that happens in this session, is obviously not an emergency,” the Republican House District 26 Representative from Wilsonville said. “We planned this session and announced this session as we walked out of the building in June that would defy the definition of an emergency session when you plan eight months ahead of time.
