We have great news to celebrate!
Thanks to the tireless advocacy on behalf of Oregon’s youth by folks like you, critical bills supporting Oregon’s children, families, and caregivers have passed key legislative hurdles. These victories will:
- Expand child care access (HB 3008, HB 3560, HB 3496)
- Invest in maternal and infant health (SB 691-695, “Momnibus”)
- Protect food security (HB 3425: School Meals for All)
- Boost mental health and oral care in schools (HB 2729, SB 597)
- Keep kids safe (Toxic Free Schools, Flavors Hook Oregon Kids, Freedom to Read)
… and much more!
This is how support and change are enabled—when we speak up and act together.
Now, these bills move closer to becoming law, and we’ll need your voice to keep the momentum going.
