Looking Ahead: Be a Part of Regional Advocacy

Preparing for the 2027 Legislative Session

Although the Legislature won't convene again until next year, the work of advocacy is already well underway.

Throughout the coming months, the Regional Business Alliance will continue gathering business input, refining regional policy priorities, strengthening partnerships, and engaging with lawmakers across Central Oregon. This proactive approach ensures the region enters the 2027 Legislative Session with a clear, unified voice focused on policies that support economic opportunity and long-term prosperity.

Be Part of Regional Advocacy

Regional advocacy is strongest when businesses are actively engaged. All businesses types and sizes are welcome and needed!

Here's how you can get involved:

• Participate in an upcoming Regional Business Roundtable
• Attend the  Central Oregon Economic and Policy Summit  
• Share your perspective through surveys and advocacy action alerts
• Connect with Jennifer Stephens to discuss policy issues affecting your business
• Become a sponsor partner and help support regional collaboration while showcasing your organization's commitment to Central Oregon's future.

Together, we're building a stronger voice for businesses across Central Oregon; one that is collaborative, informed, and ready to shape the future of our region.
