Legislation

At Work in the Capitol, the County, the City

The Sierra Club Oregon Legislative Committee (LegCom) works to ensure the Club makes a powerful impact on state and local legislation, with a specific focus on the Oregon Legislature. LegCom is made up entirely of volunteers who shape and direct the Chapter's priorities and work along with our staff Policy Strategist, Emily Bowes.
