Government Relations Update Government Relations Office of the President Portland State University www.pdx.edu/gov-relations NOV/DEC 2012 GOVERNMENT RELATIONS UPDATE As Mayor-elect Charlie Hales prepares for his inauguration, he is LOCAL RELATIONS busy hiring his staff to transition into the Mayor’s office in January. He announced in early December that he hired Gail Shibley as his Chief of Staff. Shibley, a native Oregonian, is a former Oregon State Representative, Senior Advisor to the Secretary of the US Department of Labor, and most recently the Public Health Administrator for the Oregon Health Authority. In the coming weeks we will see more staffing announcements as Hales and Shibley build their team. We are losing two strong advocates for PSU on the Portland City Council, Mayor Sam Adams and Commissioner Randy Leonard. Commissioner Leonard was not only a PSU alumnus, but a champion for PSU on the council. Although Mayor Adams was not an alumnus, he definitely was a strong ally of PSU and worked hard to make sure the city of Portland was supporting the university. We encourage everyone in the PSU community to reach out and thank these two individuals for all their support and service to the City of Portland. In addition to Mayor-Elect Hales (above right), we welcome Commissioner-Elect Steve Novick (bottom right) to the council. PSU will continue to work closely with all the members of the City Council and look forward to significant collaboration in the future.

GOVERNMENTRELATIONSUPDATE NOV/DEC 2012 STATE RELATIONS Portland State students visit Capitol, meet legislators and seek opportunities Professor Richard Clucas of the Political Science Government Relations would like to thank all of the Department of PSU is conducting a senior capstone students, legislators, legislative staff, and others at the project this year entitled Engaging Democracy. As Capitol for an incredibly exciting and entertaining day! Professor Clucas sees it, “One of the most pressing problems in American politics today is that the public feels increasingly distant from elected leaders. To many reformers, the health of the nation’s democracy can only improve by getting more young people involved in politics.” The Engaging Democracy capstone will seek to address this problem by having students assist Oregon legislators during the 2013 legislative session in Salem, where they will help handle the broad range of responsibilities placed on legislative staff. During classroom times, students will learn about the position of legislatures in American politics and the character of Oregon politics. The substantive work will come from the student’s experiences as an intern this upcoming legislative session. On December 12th, the Government Relations office Directly above: Director of State Government Relations Debbie Koreski speaks with PSU students during part of their hosted those students interested in the capstone on a tour of the Capitol building. Top of page and directly below: visit to the Capitol. For most of these students, it was Representative Margaret Doherty sits down for a discussion their first time in the Capitol, and the day provided with the students about her political experiences, and potential them with a lot of new information and some exciting internship opportunities in the session. opportunities. The students were able to tour the Capitol and learn some interesting historical facts about the building itself, as well as the legislature in general. The day included visiting the Governor’s office and staff, watching a Senate floor session, and speaking with legislators and legislative staff who have close ties to PSU about their experiences in politics and upcoming internship opportunities. The afternoon concluded with watching a portion of a Joint House and Senate Higher Education Committee hearing. Representative Margaret Doherty (D - Tigard, District 35), PSU alum, was especially engaging as she sat down with our students and answered their questions and shared stories about her experiences prior to and at the Capitol. | www.pdx.edu/gov-relations | 2 GOVERNMENTRELATIONSUPDATE NOV/DEC 2012 Vikings in the Legislature Following the November elections, Oregon’s state legislature saw a shift in the partisan split within the House of Representatives, as the Democrats gained four seats and a majority with 34 representatives to the 26 Republicans, breaking the even split of the 2011 session. The Senate, on the other hand, maintained its 16-14 split, continuing the Democratic majority. Another constant in Salem was the presence of Portland State University Vikings holding elected office. Below you will find a list of legislative leadership in the Senate and House, as well as the senators and representatives who share PSU connections and were either re-elected or newly elected on November 4th.

  • S/L Sign on Letter Re: Rescue Plan State/Local
    February 17, 2021 U.S. House of Representatives Washington, D.C. 20515 U.S. Senate Washington, D.C. 20510 Dear Members of Congress: As elected leaders representing communities across our nation, we are writing to urge you to take immediate action on comprehensive coronavirus relief legislation, including desperately needed funding for states, counties, cities, and schools, and an increase in states’ federal medical assistance percentage (FMAP). President Biden’s ambitious $1.9 trillion American Rescue Plan will go a long way towards alleviating the significant financial strain COVID-19 has placed on our states, counties, cities, and schools, and the pocketbooks of working families. Working people have been on the frontlines of this pandemic for nearly a year and have continued to do their jobs during this difficult time. Dedicated public servants are still leaving their homes to ensure Americans continue to receive the essential services they rely upon: teachers and education workers are doing their best to provide quality education and keep their students safe, janitors are still keeping parks and public buildings clean, while healthcare providers are continuing to care for the sick. Meanwhile, it has been ten months since Congress passed the CARES Act Coronavirus Relief Fund to support these frontline workers and the essential services they provide. Without significant economic assistance from the federal government, many of these currently-middle class working families are at risk of falling into poverty through no fault of their own. It is a painful irony that while many have rightly called these essential workers heroes, our country has failed to truly respect them with a promise to protect them and pay them throughout the crisis.

  • Today We Are Unified in Calling on Residents and Visitors to Our
    Today we are unified in calling on residents and visitors to our respective communities to refrain from violence in the exercise of our First Amendment rights to free speech and to peaceably assemble. Black Lives Matter. Violence has no place in civic engagement and protest. Throughout 2020, and in too many years prior, we have born witness to instances of racial injustice, police brutality and the rise of white supremacist rhetoric throughout our country, and right here at home. Even now we are experiencing unhelpful and inflammatory comments and acts, from many quarters, including the highest office in the land. The overwhelming majority of our community who have risen to protest for social justice and against racial inequities have done so peacefully, in keeping with public health guidelines and within the bounds protected by our state and federal constitutions. Unfortunately, there are some individuals who have chosen violence over peaceful protest, violence towards other protestors, violence towards police officers and even an instance of deadly violence experienced recently in downtown Portland. While we recognize the outrage toward racial injustice is the foundation for the past 100+ days of protest, we call on everyone in our community seeking to confront racial injustice and to demand police accountability to forgo the path of violence. We invite every member of our respective communities to continue to engage with our governments, to hold us accountable and to contribute to and facilitate a transformation away from racist systems and towards a more equitable, just community. Similarly, we ask those who may want to demonstrate to do so peacefully and safely.
