AG Dan Rayfield's "Oregon Priorities Tour" Town Hall
SW Portland Town Hall with Senate President Rob Wagner.
The Oregon Priorities town halls will feature Attorney General Rayfield alongside key state and national leaders at each location, creating opportunities for direct engagement with communities across Oregon.
Community members will be invited to share the priorities that matter most – keeping communities safe, protecting working families, consumers, and seniors, defending Oregon’s values, and more – so Oregon DOJ can shape legal strategies that best protect the state’s interests.
“Keeping Oregon safe, fair, and forward-looking means listening to Oregonians in every corner of the state,” said Attorney General Rayfield. “That’s our goal with the Oregon Priorities Tour – especially as the federal government steps back or tries to dismantle the very agencies meant to protect people. States like ours have to pick up the slack. We are hearing from people who know our communities best and turning those conversations into action.”
ASL and Spanish interpretation will be provided.
