Statewide – Oregon

This month members of Congress have left Washington, DC and are back home in their districts. This is one of the best opportunities of the year to educate them about issues that matter to people with disabilities!
 
Whether you advocate for Medicaid, Supplemental Security Income, food assistance, affordable housing, or other issues, our Senators and Representatives need to hear about the programs and services that support millions of people with disabilities to live independent lives.
 
The Arc Oregon team can help you schedule an appointment with members of Congress near you. We’ve got T-shirts and buttons for you and informational materials you can share during your visit. Would you rather get involved by emailing or connecting with members of congress on Social Media? We can help with that too!
 
Contact us by filling out the form below or call our office at (503) 581-2726 to get started today!
