Meet Your Legislators & Engage in Advocacy 

By participating in the Taste Oregon Reception, you can help underscore the importance of Oregon's hospitality and tourism industry to state policymakers. The event will be held on February 10 at the Salem Convention Center, and is open to all hospitality industry members, Oregon State Legislators and staff, and state agency representatives.

It offers hospitality professionals an exclusive opportunity to discuss key industry issues during the legislative session and highlight our industry’s impact on Oregon’s economy. In addition to members of the Oregon State Senate and House of Representatives, we invite state agencies such as Oregon OSHA, Travel Oregon, WorkSource Oregon, OLCC, and other policymakers whose decisions affect our industry.
