WHY REVOKE VOTER-APPROVED

CAMPAIGN FINANCE REFORMS

WITH NO PUBLIC DISCUSSION?

The City Auditor's office is trying to get the Legislature to pre-emptively revoke the contribution limits and disclosure requirements approved by 87% of Portland voters back in 2018. This is all happening in a hurry and without public discussion even though many city offices are closed on Presidents' Day. A decision on this could happen as early as today (Monday, February 17th).

ACTION: Email your district's councilors (contact info below).

If you care about reducing the influence of big money in Oregon politics, tell your councillors to go on public record opposing this flagrant disregard of voter's voices.
