1904–1962
In February 1903, Oregon began transitioning hangings away from local prisons and into the state penitentiary in Salem.[54] From 1914 to 1920, the state abolished capital punishment.[55] In May 1937, the state announced its plans to replace hanging with gas asphyxiation, with the state penitentiary's new gas chamber arriving via rail shipment and installed that December.[56][57] On November 2, 1964, the state voted again to abolish capital punishment.[58][59]

1978–present
In 1978, Oregon restored capital punishment, with new statutes going into effect that December 6th.[123] On January 20, 1981, these laws were declared unconstitutional by the Oregon Supreme Court, but in November 1984 a new capital punishment statute was approved.[124][125] Following this, only two prisoners were executed (both by lethal injection), and capital punishment in Oregon has subsequently been under a moratorium since 2011.
