@LWV: The Senate must weigh the evidence, serve as impartial jurors not tied to party lines, and convict Donald Trump as indicated, ensuring that he is banned from running for federal office again. Our statement on the impeachment process: https://t.co/Zeh6dJqFsB https://t.co/PEhMm43ltV

@bynum4thewin: It's that time again Oregon Twitter. We're taking up police reform in the legislature and I want to hear from you. The House Subcommittee on Equitable Policing will be meeting weekly on Monday and Wednesday starting at 8 am.

Upcoming Events

2021 Legislative Session: League members will follow legislative committee meetings and may testify on proposed legislation, according to our advocacy positions. Likewise, LWVPDX members will follow the meetings of the Portland City Council and the Multnomah County Commission.

During January and February 2021, LWVPDX members will be working on “program planning” for our 2021-22 League year. This involves planning for in-depth studies of current critical issues and topics for civic education events.

April 2021: LWVPDX will prepare voting guides and videos of candidate interviews and/or forums for school board candidates running in the May 2021 election.
