The Urban League of Portland is hosting a 2022 Short Session Legislative Debrief Tuesday, March 29th from 12 pm – 1 pm! During the 2022 Legislative Session, the Urban League of Portland prioritized close to twenty bills. We submitted both written and virtual testimony for all. We also held events to encourage support for the bills. We are excited to share our successes and the unfinished business of the session. These policies are rooted in racial, gender, and economic justice and are meant to work in tandem to provide the immediate support we needed to survive the COVID-19 pandemic and recover from historic disinvestment in our communities. Join us for our 2022 Short Session Legislative Debrief!
