GOP state senators are disqualifying themselves from reelection to block gun restrictions, abortion rights, and gender-affirming care
to impose new gun restrictions , to protect abortion rights, and to ensure access to gender-affirming medical care. In other words, in progressive Oregon as in deep-red regions of the country, Republicans are going to the mats over their party base’s culture-war preoccupations.
Yes, the boycotting senators are pledging to challenge the new law penalizing truant legislators in court. But it’s a bad look for them in any case. While public opinion may be somewhat blurry on gender-affirming medical care, there’s no question the gun and abortion laws Oregon Democrats are trying to enact are very popular in Oregon, as they are in all but the most conservative states. So in a very real sense, the GOP there is choosing the most extreme obstructive tools available to minority political factions in order to ensure they remain in the minority perpetually.
