1992

In 1992, Starr was selected to serve on the Republican Party's Washington County Central Committee for a two-year term.

1994

He served as a committee person at his local Republican precinct and as a legislative aide to his father before election to the Hillsboro City Council in 1994.

Starr ran against Donald W. Surhbier for a four-year term representing Ward 1.

He was appointed to budget committees of both the county and Hillsboro during this time.

1998

He remained on the city council until running for the Oregon House of Representatives in 1998 to replace his father, who was running for the state senate.

The district had more registered Republican voters than Democrats.

Bruce also served as his father's legislative aide during the elder's terms in the Oregon House.

2000

He won re-election to the House in 2000, winning 57% of the vote and defeating Libertarian David Hintz who received 3% and Democrat Cathy Lamb-Mullin with 40%.

A Republican, he served two terms in the Oregon House of Representatives before winning election to the Oregon State Senate in 2002.

There he joined his father Senator Charles Starr and they became the first father-son team to serve at the same time in Oregon's Senate.

In 2002, Starr ran for the Oregon State Senate to represent District 15, which had been redrawn after the 2000 Census.

The new version of the district was entirely within Washington County and included Forest Grove, Cornelius, and Hillsboro.

Part of the reason for moving to the state senate was that term limits at the time limited people to 12 years maximum and three terms in the House, and Starr hoped to serve for the maximum amount of time.

He was elected in the November election to a four-year term, and became part of the first father-son tandem in the history of the Oregon Senate.

He represents District 15 which is composed mainly of Washington County and includes part of Clackamas County.

2007

In February 2007, he was fined by the state's ethics commission a total of $300 for failing to report two trips paid for by lobbyists as required by law.

One trip was to Israel, while the other was a trip to Hawaii paid for by Oregon Beer & Wine Distributors Association in which four other state legislators were also fined.

Starr sponsored a bill that required the Oregon Department of Motor Vehicles to issue driver's licenses only to legal residents in May 2007.

The bill passed the Senate, but was not enacted into law.

2008

A similar measure was passed in February 2008 and signed into law the Oregon Governor Ted Kulongoski.
