The various interim committees were named and there are a few key changes.  The Republican make-up in the Senate Environment and Natural Resources Committee is different because Senator Jason Atkinson is no longer in the Committee.    Instead Senator Roger Beyer is Vice-Chair and Senator Nelson is on the Committee.   The other breaking news is Senator Ginny Burdick is now chairing Finance and Revenue due to the pending resignation of Senator Ryan Deckert (who was hired to head up the Oregon Business Association). 

On the House side, Representatives Tobias Read and Bill Garrard now serve on the Energy and Environment Committee.  They replace Representatives Greg Macpherson and Bob Jenson.  For more information about all the committees click on this link (http://www.leg.state.or.us/comm/).
