Relating to the Ten Commandments.
HB 3710 directs Oregon's State Parks and Recreation Department to place a monument displaying the full text of the Ten Commandments in State Capitol State Park. The bill requires the monument to be designed and placed at no cost to the state through a nonprofit partner, with the site chosen alongside other monuments in consultation with the Capitol Planning Commission. The bill also authorizes the Attorney General or a nonprofit legal group to defend the monument against potential legal challenges, while stating the placement does not favor any specific religion. This is a procedural bill focused on a public monument, not a change to laws affecting residents or government operations.
