The Oregon House of Representatives convened on May 23, 2025, but was unable to proceed with any legislative actions due to the absence of a quorum. Speaker Fahey announced that several members were excused, leading to a situation where no decisions could be made. As a result, all measures scheduled for discussion were postponed until the next meeting, set for May 27, 2025.

During the session, Speaker Fahey took a moment to welcome a group of students from Cedar Oak Elementary School, highlighting the importance of civic engagement and education. The students were encouraged to observe the legislative process, although the session was cut short due to the lack of sufficient members present.

The inability to conduct business underscores the challenges of maintaining legislative momentum, particularly as the state approaches significant dates like Memorial Day. The House will reconvene next week, where it is expected to address pending measures and continue its work on behalf of Oregonians.
