Maddy summarySB 548 raises Oregon's minimum legal marriage age from 17 to 18 years for all residents. It amends multiple statutes (including ORS 106.010 and 106.050) to remove exceptions allowing minors under 18 to marry, and repeals the prior exception (ORS 106.060) that permitted underage marriage with parental consent or court approval. The bill directly affects anyone seeking a marriage license in Oregon, requiring all applicants to be at least 18 years old without exceptions. This change eliminates all pathways for minors to marry in Oregon, effective January 1, 2026. The law applies uniformly to all marriages solemnized under Oregon law.
