SALEM, Ore. – Oregon Senate Republicans on Monday elected Sen. Bruce Starr, R-Dundee, as their new caucus leader.
Starr succeeds Sen. Daniel Bonham, R-The Dalles, who had served as Minority Leader since 2023. Senator Bonham has announced he’s resigning from the Senate in October.
“Daniel Bonham’s service as caucus leader has been exceptional,” Starr said in a statement. “He has always punched above his weight class, and he leaves huge shoes to fill. Senator Bonham inspires us to keep looking ahead, and I will always treasure his friendship.”
Starr rejoined the Senate in 2025 after previously serving in both the Oregon House and Senate from 1999 to 2014. He currently represents Oregon’s 13th Senate District, which includes parts of Yamhill and Washington counties.
