Bill > HCRes19

This concurrent resolution recognizes the significant contributions of the League of Oregon Cities (LOC), a municipal organization founded in 1925 that represents and supports cities across Oregon. The resolution highlights the League's ongoing efforts to advance municipal governance, advocate for local priorities, and support Oregon's 241 cities, which are home to approximately 3 million residents (70% of the state's population). The LOC has played a crucial role in supporting important federal legislative actions, including the CHIPS and Science Act, the American Rescue Plan Act, the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act, the CARES Act, and broadband expansion initiatives. The resolution emphasizes the League's work in promoting sustainable development, infrastructure improvement, public safety, community engagement, and home rule authority. By recognizing the LOC's century-long commitment, the resolution acknowledges the organization's critical role in enhancing the quality of life for Oregonians and its importance as a key partner in the federal-local partnership.
