Dear NFIB/Oregon members,
The political season is upon us once again and we have much to do between now and the 2016 General Election scheduled for Tuesday, November 8th. In case you missed it, NFIB/Oregon released its 2015-2016 Legislative Voting Record back in March and shortly thereafter, we announced endorsements for 29 Oregon incumbent legislators from the NFIB Oregon’s SAFE (Save America’s Free Enterprise) Trust, NFIB/OR’s state PAC.
But that was just the first round of NFIB/Oregon’s political activities this year. Very soon the NFIB Oregon SAFE Trust will be announcing a second round of legislative endorsements, this time for candidates running in open seats and challengers who are running against incumbents with poor voting records on small business issues. Please be on the lookout for those announcements – and by all means, please help those candidates get elected in every way you are able.
Finally, in the coming weeks you will see a Special Member Ballot from us in your email inbox – and we’ll be needing your input. The NFIB Oregon SAFE Trust will be evaluating candidates running for statewide office like Governor, Attorney General, and (possibly) others. We’ll be asking you whether you think NFIB/Oregon should be involved in each respective race, and if so, who you support for that office.
When you see that email, be sure to click on the link and VOTE!
Thank you for your membership and for your continued support,
Anthony K. Smith
NFIB/Oregon State Director
