They were hired by the voters to do a job and they failed. Their obligation is to represent everyplace in their district and they demonstrated nothing but contempt for that obligation and oath.

Oregonians voted on this matter and these reps knew the consequences.

Measure 113 was clearly an effort by the majority to disenfranchise the minority. This needs to get before the US Supreme Court as quickly as possible. Clearly unconstitutional.

I'm pretty sure the rest of us would be terminated for 10 unexcused absences... your actions were absolutely cowardly... how about doing the job we're paying you to do...

Because most of us voted for the bill to be passed for that reason. They could have pass way more bills that would have benefited all of us.

they went in knowing that it was a law and willfully did not go to work, just to slow the process they were hired to perform.

They did the right thing, keeping the left from passing more bad legislature! I mean look what they have done, defunding police, increased crime rates significantly, especially in Portland, decriminalizing hard drugs, they turned Portland into a a crime ridden, drug ridden slime pit. Vote Republican

Lol, what's unconstitutional about it? Gabe, you are regurgitating the BS you hear on Fox News. You don't actually know what you're taking about. I hope it does go to the supreme court so when it's determined to be constitutional, other states follow course. The GOP is a dying, outdated breed.

CB ... The 14th Amendment for voters rights. Not allowing voters to vote for who they want could be unconstitutional. We shall see :) Oh, Childishly insulting individual's for their opinions is a sign of weakness in ones argument, just saying :)

Only Communist ban competition and people they disagree with. When they left the Capital it was standing up for their voters, they did their job.

If they're a candidate and win because people vote for them they should get the job!

They didn't show up to their job 10+ times. In the real world, you get fired for that, as should they. They are pathetic disappointments not worthy of their positions.

Did you do anything special for Pearl Harbor Remembrance Day?

I was a five year old and I will always remember this day. My parents came into my bedroom and told me not to worry about anything I might hear at school the next day about a war as they would always take good care of me. I always felt very secure... Also, our youngest son was born on this day.

Of course. If you or I created a freaking mess, dumped garbage, etc. on public property we would be fined and/or jailed and be responsible for the cleanup. Too bad nobody in govt has the will or the b___s to do anything about it so it will only become a larger festering cancer on our society.

Because living this why and allowing this kind of behavior is unacceptable in our community and anywhere there needs to be stricter laws and rules and regulations to get either these people out of here or get them help one or the other I've lived here my whole life and I've never seen anything like

We were cited for the 14 day rule because we stayed from 1st elk season thru 2nd elk season. Our camp was clean and we didn't leave any garbage or damage. All we were doing was hunting. Guess we should have said we were homeless.

"No Camping" means no camping. Period. China Hat is not a campground. Period. So remove these transients. Holly Jewkes of the Forest Service has blood on her hands for the death of Courtney Carrol due to fire. Holly Jewkes did not enforce the no camping law. Now we have lost a life.

Public lands are just that, public. There's no right to buy them and the people living there aren't even buying them. They're squatting. And squatting is theft

We need to do much more to protect the innocent people being threatened by dangerous homeless people who have no respect for land owners and visitors to central oregon.

People will push the limits cause they know they can. Homeless can get away with ALOT more than people who try. Just one example is litter! I throw litter out the truck window I will get fined. Go figure!!!!

I pay taxes to live here. Can I go out into the national forrest and build a 3600sqf foot house anywhere I choose and live for free? The USFS would kick me out immediately without any of the excuses they use for the homeless issue.

This is the most silly question ever! If they are breaking the rule they should be fined like everyone else! To have the local residents that pay taxes and have their residence set up there put up with this is off the chart! Is so wrong! Something needs to be done! Very sad, very wrong!!! Wake UP!

35 years? He says he moved here in 2009. I guess 14 years doesn't make it as easy to sensationalize a non-story.
