Please consider taking a short (10-15 minute) survey to share your input on the future of higher education and training in Oregon! We value public input on the development of a statewide strategic plan, and encourage sharing this invitation widely. https://t.co/CuszFUPaNx

Q3. How would being able to take time off to care for a loved one change your life? #ORValues #orleg #orpol

@APANONews I use public transportation every day. I have the privilege of living in an urban area where I have access to the MAX train and multiple bus lines. One of the problems I see on transit in Portland is increased police presence and aggressive fare checkers.

Q6. 100,000+ undocumented Oregonians live without a license. If you couldn’t get a license, how would that impact your life? #ORValues #orleg #orpol

[APANO Action Fund @APANOActionFund]

Q4. Families come in all shapes, forms, and sizes. Why is an inclusive definition of “family” important for paid leave? #ORValues #orleg #orpol

[Oregon Student Association @OregonStudents]

Students, how do commutes to work and school impact your education? How does access to transportation impact you and your family?

[APANO Action Fund @APANOActionFund]

WA invests $468 million in its need based aid program. No qualifying student turned away. The #OregonOpportunityGrant rejects 60% of eligible students in need.

We only need $252 M to #CloseTheFundingGap for #orstudents. Time to get this done. RT if you agree. #orpol #orleg

[Oregon Student Association @OregonStudents]

Here's the stories of some of the many students the legislature lets down every time they continue to underfund postsecondary education
