Prior to the adoption of the second set of Organic Laws in 1845, the legislative body of the provisional government was the legislative committee, and leaders of that body are not listed below.
  As of 2017 and the 79th Oregon Legislative Assembly, Tina Kotek has been elected to the position for the last three terms.
