With Zoom and virtual committees this year, making your voice heard in Salem can be easier than ever. Join us as we reach out from the comfort of our couches.
Central Oregon Landwatch’s Legislative Advocacy Kickoff will present what we estimate to be the key themes of the 2021 State of Oregon Legislative Session, how LandWatch will be working on issues and bills of particular interest, and what you can do to advocate for the protection of the region’s lands, water, wildlife, and vibrant urban communities.
We will need your help. As we see bills come to the floor, we will be constantly reviewing legislation to find and support the best policies for our community. In this virtual Legislative Kickoff event, we will discuss our role in state policy building, identify the key themes and things to look out for this legislative session, and outline what you can do to advocate for the protection of the region’s lands, water, wildlife, and vibrant urban communities.
In this virtual event, we will introduce you to our lobbyist in Salem, provide an overview of the themes and issues we are advocating for this year, and provide step-by-step ways to make your voice heard. With the online conferencing made necessary by the pandemic, in some ways it may be easier than ever this session to view live legislative committee hearings, offer testimony, and otherwise engage in proceedings on issues and bills of interest to you.
