Operative words

a temporary moratorium on terminations of residential and non-residential rental agreements and evictions on the basis of nonpayment is necessary during this emergency... Executive Order 20-11 prohibits law enforcement from enforcing residential tenant eviction notices and orders. Given the ongoing public health emergency, further action is necessary to prevent termination of residential leases and the initiation of eviction proceedings during this emergency

Enforcement

ORS 401.990 (Class C misdemeanor)
