Urge Oregon legislators to pass the Pause Act in 2025!

After victories stopping state investments in coal and establishing a Net Zero Plan for PERS, next up is the Pause Act (Senate Bill 681) in the 2025 Oregon legislature. The Pause Act calls for a 5-year moratorium on state investments in private equity funds with involvement in fossil fuels.
