As a member of the Building Resilience coalition, OLCV is one of 50+ organizations working to ensure Oregon state lawmakers are passing laws to make our homes healthier, energy bills fairer, and communities more resilient to the climate crisis. Our Lobby Day will connect you with lawmakers to make policy personal.
Building Resilience Community Lobby Day
WHEN: Wednesday, May 7 from 9AM - 5PM
WHERE: Oregon State Capitol, Salem
→ RSVP by Wednesday, April 30 ←
Lunch and Breakfast Provided
We’ll set up the meetings, provide training and talking points, and partner you with others in your district for conversations with your lawmakers. Join us, alongside Building Resilience, to make the case for:
-
One Stop Shop 2.0 (HB 3081) to help people find, apply for, and benefit from home energy rebates with live local support.
- Get the Junk Out of Rates (SB 88) so things like expensive lawyers, lobbyists, and advertising fees come out of utility company profits and not our pockets.
-
Full Funding For Current Programs (state budget) like Community Resilience Hubs and heat pump incentive programs – especially for renters, rural households, and communities hit hardest by the climate crisis. These programs are nearly out of funding and are proven to improve health, cut climate pollution, and help people stay housed by lowering the cost of living.
Lawmakers want to hear directly from the people they represent. Whether you’ve done this before or are brand new to advocacy, you’ll be part of a strong team making a real impact.
Register for the Building Resilience Lobby Day on May 7 to fight for a future where everyone thrives. Your voice could be the one that changes votes – and changes lives!
