3 Highlights on Coalition/Alliance Issues:

  • IZ: Inclusionary Housing (OPAL EJ Oregon) - SB 1533 is scheduled for a hearing on Mon Feb 8. IZ (Inclusionary Zoning) provides tools for local towns and cities to require affordable housing as part of new developments. Media: Builders Weigh Lifting Opposition


  • End Profiling (CIO) - HB 4003 is expected to be the first bill to pass off the house floor. The legislation will extend the Attorney General workgroup charged with creating a comprehensive system to address police profiling—including data collection, independent oversight and accountability.


  • Raise the Wage (Fair Shot for All) - SB 1532 to raise the minimum wage is still being worked in the Senate, and behind the scenes with the Governor, Community and Business interests.
