BBPDX is pleased to host Rep. Barbara Smith Warner, the co-chair of the Joint Committee on Student Success, for coffee and conversation in NE Portland. We appreciate her taking time when she's in Portland to meet with our members to get their input about the corporate tax reforms under consideration to support expanded education investments.
Other guests include Rep. Karin Power, the first legislator to reach out to BBPDX members back in the 2017 session when BBPDX first engaged on this issue. We will be adding other legislator names to the guest list as they are confirmed.
For more information on BBPDX's work in this arena, read our recent op-eds linked below and also see our recent sign-on letter here.
