Oregon House passes bill allowing landlords to evict squatters

The Oregon House of Representatives unanimously passed a bill Thursday that would allow property owners and landlords to evict a squatter after giving a 24-hour notice.

Jennifer and John Chamberlain, former Salem residents, dealt with their own squatter situation. The couple planned to sell their home to move to eastern Oregon so John could lead his own church. Their adopted son, helping manage the property, asked to house a woman in their shed for a short period of time.
