Please fill out this 2018 Election Educator Day of Action Commitment Card Template_Eugene flyer and send to Kelli Horvath, OEA Government Relations Representative for community colleges, at kelli.horvath@oregoned.org.
Also email lccea@lanecc.edu if you are coming, so we can get numbers to those preparing walk and call sheets. If you can’t make it on the 20th, feel free to pick another date from the flyer. 

 

This is an important election! We need your help to keep our unions and public education system in Oregon strong. 
 

OEA endorses education candidates like our Governor Brown but only provides financial support from dues to advocate for issues such as funding for K-12 and community colleges and education policy issues. (All candidate-related contributions are made by voluntary donations to the OEA Political Action Committee: OEA-PAC, formerly OEA-PIE). 

Each year delegates to the OEA Representative Assembly (RA) from each local Association vote to determine the issues the OEA will support. This year the RA will be April 26-27, 2019. Keep an eye out for a call for delegate nominees from LCCEA in Winter term. LCCEA members will vote to choose delegates to represent LCCEA at the OEA RA. One of the most important ways to support a vibrant democracy is to participate!

Thanks from your LCCEA Legislative Action team:
