Victory for all Oregonians
Oregon voters tonight passed two critical tax fairness measures, Measures 66 and 67. Passage of these measures will protect vital programs that serve our most vulnerable citizens.
Many thanks and congratulations to the human service advocates who knocked on doors, called voters, sent emails and voted in support of these measures. We know that we still have our work cut out for us but this is a huge win for Oregon.
Great work team and way to go Oregon!

Last day to vote!
It was great to see so many of you hitting the doors in support Measures 66 & 67 last week! Here's a picture of the canvass send-off.
With just hours to go before the ballot boxes close, make sure that your voice is heard and turn in your ballot! There is also still time to help volunteer. Here is some important information on making sure your vote gets counted.
The most important thing you need to know:
Ballots must be received by your county elections office or an official drop site location no later than 8 p.m., Tuesday, January 26, 2010.
Check out this map of every official ballot drop site in Oregon. Just click where you live, and get directions to your nearest official drop site!
Or click here for a list of official drop sites in Multnomah County.
Or contact the elections office in your county: A list of county elections offices is available here.
Can't find your official Voters' Guide? The Voter Guide is available online here.
Remember, in some counties, ballots have been printed double-sided, so make sure you read your ballot carefully, and vote on both Measure 66 and Measure 67 before you turn in your ballot.
And if you'd like to volunteer, head on over to the Vote Yes for Oregon Campaign Headquarters at 411 N.E. 19th Ave. Portland, OR 97232.
