NEW: With a tiny majority, House GOP leaders tell members to show up for votes
Emmer's office is telling Republicans they can only skip under "life-and-death circumstances."
Not everyone's listening.
It's causing trouble.

Their already razor-thin majority has shrunk in recent weeks, while other Republicans have been absent from votes, leading to floor mishaps.

Trump and Republicans raised taxes on clean energy last year, destroying our best opportunity to hold down people's energy bills as data centers gobble up electricity. Anything he says he's doing on energy costs now is a fraud.

As a data center hater, feeling very vindicated by the latest report from @oregonian.com. Data center power usage is draining our state and the legislature MUST do something about it. They need to pay their fair share for energy usage AND infrastructure. #orpol
