Elect
Pro-Restaurant Legislators
The
Oregon Restaurant Political Action Committee
(ORPAC) is the part of ORA that helps pro-business
legislators get elected. ORPAC is one of the
largest business PACs in the state and one
of the most influential lobby organizations.
ORPAC
usually spends $300,000 every election directly
help candidates the help small business. Last
election cycle over 74% of ORPAC contributions
went to winning candidates. This proved beneficial
at the start of 2003 Session when the Oregonian,
for the third consecutive session, named ORA
as one of the most successful lobby organizations.
Small
Businesses Together Bring Victory at the Capitol
ORPAC
does not draw from just large businesses.
Unlike other Political Action Committees,
ORPAC is made up of mostly small contributions
of less than $100 each. ORPAC is living proof
that if Oregon’s small business community
works together and pools their resources they
can make a difference.
Join
other small businesses from across the state
and make a contribution to ORPAC. Remember,
Oregon law allows every person to deduct a
$50, or $100 for couples, direct tax credit
every year for political contributions. You
can either contribute the $50 or $100 to the
PAC where it will help in furthering you and
your business, or you can give it to the state
to be spent by politicians and bureaucrats.
