6.10.16 - OSEIA has started the Oregon SolarPAC as a way to strengthen solar’s political voice in Oregon. While OSEIA and many solar advocates have been involved in the legislative process, pushing the solar agenda, we will be much more effective if we can start policy conversations with decision-makers during the campaign season before the legislative session starts. We can also begin to identify and support policymakers who are or become solar champions.

The neat thing about political giving in Oregon is that the state actively encourages it. The Oregon Political Tax Credit allows for single people to contribute up to $50 and married people filing jointly to contribute $100 and deduct it from their state taxes. You can read more about the Oregon Political Tax Credit here.
