During each long session, as the budget for the next two years is being developed, legislators who are members of the Joint Committee on Ways and Means participate in town halls in locations around the state. They always come after the Co-Chairs of Ways and Means release their initial budget, which builds off of the Governor’s Recommended Budget received at the beginning of February. The Co-Chairs’ budget should be out in the last half of March.
These hearings are a chance for Oregonians in those locations to come before the committee and provide two minutes of public testimony on their budget priorities without having to travel to Salem.
Friday, April 21 (5:00 – 7:00pm) – Roseburg
- Location: Umpqua Community College – Jacoby Auditorium
- 1140 Umpqua College Rd, Roseburg, OR 9747
