2019 Oregon Legislature: The Final Push and Celebrating our Successes!
Come join us and hear from Mary Chaffin, chair of the OSTPDX Legislative Task Force, and members of the team as they present the remaining (and probably some of the most important) issues left for the 2019 Oregon Legislature.
We will be starting early at 6:30 “happy hour” time to celebrate all of the success we have so far achieved. We will provide the beverages and some finger foods to socialize before and after the short program by Mary and other task force members.
Members of the Task Force will be there with posters about the major issues the task force tackled. We’ll ask everyone to indicate on the posters what you did to support the work of the Task Force. If you were a citizen lobbyist who gave testimony, or emailed or called legislators, attended a rally or lobby day, attended an OST meeting to learn about bills & the legislative process, wrote letters to the editor, promoted bills on social media, volunteered with advocacy groups, etc., we want to know about it and celebrate it!
You will also find out what bills still need your support; what committees could be swayed by your passionate testimony and which legislators require a persuasive phone call. Your involvement has already and could still make the difference before the end of this legislative session by June 30.
If you want, feel free bring an appetizer to share. We will raise a toast to everyone’s hard work and enjoy social time with the folks who made make One Small Thing such a special community of activists. We will be taking July and August off from membership meetings, so hope to see you in June!
