Endorse the Nonprofit Modernization Act – SB 606
Endorse the Nonprofit Modernization Act – SB 606
With less than a month and a half left in the Oregon legislative session, time is running out to pass SB 606, the Oregon Nonprofit Modernization Act. We need your help to get a hearing in the Joint Ways & Means Committee for SB 606 to continue through the legislative process.
Without a hearing, the Oregon Nonprofit Modernization Act will die and non-profits and the communities they support will suffer! That’s why we need you to help us pass the Oregon Nonprofit Modernization Act this legislative session.
What is the Oregon Nonprofit Modernization Act:
- Easy and simple changes to government contracting practices that can be implemented right away and have an immediate impact.
- A Nonprofit Task Force to take a close look at streamlining and simplifying contracting, improving payment delivery, reducing burdensome reporting requirements, and raising nonprofit wages to improve employee retention in the long-term.
- A Workforce Retention Fund to help nonprofits retain employees in the short-term.
