Bend-based NewSun Energy is calling on Oregon lawmakers to accelerate permitting for solar facilities as new federal policies pose a “massive chilling effect” for the industry.
In the late 1970s, small bands of Oregon legislators used bipartisan tactics to accomplish their goals in the Capitol.
It’s been a great morning of networking and engaging conversations at the 2025 Oregon State of Reform health policy conference. Topics so far have included how the Oregon Health Authority is preparing for new Medicaid work requirements while maintaining access and affordability for members. Several of our CCO members with the Coalition for a Healthy Oregon also spoke on a panel about the importance of Oregon’s Prioritized List. 0 CommentsComment on Facebook

The group, representing both sides of the aisle, shared a common focus on how labor and management can work together to move projects forward and strengthen Oregon’s economy.
Discussion covered topics such as the I-5 Bridge replacement, the potential of Oregon’s shipbuilding industry, the impact of duplicative regulation, and what the federal government can do to fund projects and cut red tape to expand economic opportunity for Oregon families and create more jobs.
Senator Mullin drew on his own background as a tradesman and business owner, relating to the experiences of those in the room who have also experienced the challenges of navigating overly complicated regulations that slow down good projects.
A big thank-you to Oregon State Senator Bruce Starr for welcoming everyone to Hillsboro and helping make this important conversation possible.
