ASOSU Lobbying Events :

ASOSU works with the Oregon Student Association to bring students from across the state to Salem in order to speak with legislators about issues facing higher education. Some of the issues highlighted include: funding our institutions and need based aid, mental health resources, cultural competency, and sexual assault prevention. All students are welcome to join and share their stories. Below are future lobbying opportunities:

  • “Tuition is too DAM High Lobby Day”: Opportunity to lobby in Salem, on Feb. 14th from 7:45am – 4pm. Transportation and food will be provided. This is an all-day event, therefore ASOSU encourages students to speak with their professors beforehand, so they can make the appropriate arrangements for your absence from class. The deadline to register is Feb. 7th by 5pm. The registration form can be found by clicking here.
  • DC Lobby Trip: This trip gives students the chance to not only tour our nation’s capitol, but also lobby Oregon’s federal legislators on issues that are impacting students at home. The all-expenses-paid trip will be in mid-April and students applying can expect to miss several days of school. Applications will open on Monday, Jan. 30th and will be accessible on the ASOSU website. The deadline to apply is Monday, Feb 13th.
