Oregon's 2026 public safety act (Chapter 77, in effect since it was signed on March 31, 2026) sets statewide rules for police use of automated license plate recognition (ALPR): cameras combined with computer algorithms that read plates and vehicle traits. Police may use ALPR only for listed purposes, must delete data not tied to a case or investigation within 30 days, log every search, publish their policies and their vendors' monthly audits, and may share data with non-Oregon agencies only for a specific law enforcement purpose.

It was referred to Judiciary, then Information Management and Technology, and was in committee upon adjournment June 27, 2025.
Relating to requirements that apply to persons that process consumer personal data.
Oregon's HB 3899 (2025) would have amended the Oregon Consumer Privacy Act. It would have lowered the applicability thresholds in ORS 646A.572 from 100,000 to 35,000 consumers, and from 25,000 consumers with 25 percent of gross revenue from selling personal data to 10,000 consumers with 20 percent.
