Salem Scene by Evsrstt E. Cutter ADVISORY GROUP SEEKS To Improve Legislature Oregonians have long been proud of our “open” legisla ture, where public and press Is welcome to witness any committee meetings or floor action. The openness of our state government, however, Is in creasingly thwarted by a sim ple lack of physical space. Committee observers often spill out of close rooms into Capitol hallways, listening to loudspeakers, and galleries freo.uently offer standing room only. Few legislators enjoy pri vate offices here, and Oregon remains one of only two states where legislators’ sec retaries still have their desks on the Senate and House floors. An outgrown Capitol Build ing is only one of the prob lems being studied by the Special Advisory Committee on the Oregon Legislature, es tablished last session to study means of improving legisla tive efficiency, procedures and public understanding. Its goal is to help develop stronger state government, where citi zens’ voices are more likel- ’o be heard, Instead of allow ng problem-solving to br ’urned over to the federa’ Government or state bureau “racies. Most committee member- are citizens from all walks o' ife. Thirty public member are joined by three state sen '■tors and four represent? tives; they elected Rav Vester Lake Oswego, chairman. So far, most research anf hearings have been conduct ed by the six subcommittee established to examine specia’ areas of concern. More tha- ‘wo dozen meetings have beer be'd by the full committer and various subcommittee^ ‘hey plan to finish research y July 1 and to draft recom nendations for the 1969 leg 'slature by Dec. 1. Subcommittees are: -Legislative Facilities which is taking up the ques tion of Capitol space utiliza tion and needs, along with suggested improvements in effectiveness which might re sult from new convenience ar comforts. —Legislative Organization 1 is considering committee com position and procedures with an eye to streamlining an< again, lmnroving effi"' Legislative Communica tions concerns Itself with the legislature’s public image and the desirability of improving twoway understanding be tween Capitol chambers and the citizen. —Legislative Staff and Their Needs is studying means to keep qualified secre taries, clerks and researchers to assist lawmakers—consid ered essential if we are to maintain “citizen legislators.” —Legislative Compensation is looking into salaries and other bonuses desirable to at tract our best citizens to run for office—most lawmakers now find Salem demands cut ting heavily into their private occupations, and many use wives as secretaries. —Length of Sessions and Possible Need for Annual Ses sions is examining other slates’ policies in an effort to determine the best course for handling the growing business of Oregon. Among recommendations which may be forwarded to the legislature for action are proposals to reduce the num ber of standing committeees and have them carry over through interim periods, to have bills preprinted and freed from some procedural tangles, to add wings to the Capitol Building and remove secretaries from the floors, and to expand the state’s pro fessional bill analysis service. It Is reasonable to expect the group to promote Consti tutional revision, which may include a provision for annual sessions. Also being discuss ed: a post-legislative audit separate from the executive branch audit to ensure follow- through on legislative intent, electronic voting, larger leg islative salaries in line with other states, staggered terms for House members to give the House more stability. Cap itol air conditioning, larger hearing rooms and improved public communications. Sitting in on many commit tee meetings is Robert M. Schaefer, western represen tative for the national Citi zens Advisory Committee on State Legislatures, who has cited many improvements growing out of similar studies in Washington State Special izing In services to state citi zens advisory groups such as ours, the national organiza tion was set up three years ago with a $1 million Ford Foundation grant to help stop federal government growth into areas where state legis latures can be strengthened to meet needs. “The issue is not states’ rights but states’ responsibi lities,” according to its offi cers. “The challenge Is to de velop legislatures capable of acting on problems, rather than belatedly reacting under pressures from other units of government.” Oregon now is taking a giant step in this direction, and no doubt there will be re form. Many recommendations express feelings which could not very well be advanced by the legislature itself, but it appears likely it will get to vote on them next winter.
