HB 2930
ELIMINATING ARBITRATION PROTECTIONS
Background: HB 2930 would eliminate many collectively-bargained arbitration protections for law enforcement officers, allowing Chiefs and sheriffs to have unaccountable discretion in disciplinary decisions. This would run counter to long-standing principles of due process and basic fairness, as well as provide opportunities for favoritism, cronyism, and discrimination among managers. ORCOPS recommends a NO vote.

TIPS:
Personalize your message. Let your officials know who you are, where you're from, and why you are concerned.
Be polite. Your elected officials will be much more impressed with a reasoned message than a rude one.
Don't worry if you're not an expert on details... neither are many of the Legislators! They hear from experts all day long, but your voice means much more as a constituent.
Make sure all fields are filled out!

Call their office
Your elected officials actually do like to hear from real constituents like you. Unlike Congressional offices in Washington DC, your State Legislators in Salem might actually be the ones to pick up the phone!
Even if you talk with staff or leave a message, remember to be polite but firm. Be personal and describe why you think public employees shouldn't be cut out of the process.
