Earlier this morning at our Business Advocacy Meeting (September 3, 2026), members of the Salem business community had the opportunity to hear directly from State Legislative Candidates as they shared their platforms, priorities, and ideas for our community.
These conversations are an important part of keeping our business community informed and engaged on the issues that impact Salem and the Mid-Willamette Valley.
A special thank-you to our panel of presenters for joining us and sharing their perspectives, and to everyone who participated in person and online. We appreciate your continued engagement and commitment to our community!
