Fighting for the Oregon CTSO's.

We anticipate that a decision on the funding for the SLDC will come in the next 5-10 days, which means that we are VERY short on time to convince the Legislature to continue funding CTSO's like Oregon FFA, DECA, FBLA and others.

With such limited time, we want to focus on the efforts that will have the maximum impact in the next few weeks. PLEASE take just a few minutes to help the CTSO's by doing the following:

1. Write an email to one of these key legislators. These individuals will have a voice in the SLDC funding, but we don't know where they stand on the issue yet. Take the time to write a personal email, then send it out one at a time to each legislator. Need help with what to say? Check out www.oregondeca.org/advocacy for talking points and tips.
