Show full summary
  • Cities and local governments: LOC provides research, technical expertise, and advocacy that helps cities pursue infrastructure, housing, and public safety. Its advocacy supported federal actions that brought Oregon more than $4.5 billion from the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act.
  • Residents and communities: 241 cities are home to about 3 million residents, roughly 70% of Oregon's population. The resolution emphasizes cities as economic, cultural, and social hubs that deliver essential infrastructure and services.
  • Federal policy and funding: LOC worked with congressional leaders and backed laws such as the CHIPS and Science Act, the American Rescue Plan, the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act, the CARES Act, and the ReConnect program to align federal policy with local priorities.
