Power of Community

Join the Fight for Affordable Rates!

This is a time of unprecedented change in the electric utility industry. At all government levels, elected officials could look at raising utility taxes to increase revenues. At the federal level, Congress will consider a number of bills that could dramatically raise the price of electricity for Northwest consumers.

If our electric cooperative is to provide affordable power and best represent the needs of its members, we need your help. Power of Community is a grassroots network of 6,000 electric cooperative consumers throughout Oregon. When asked, these people contact their elected officials to express support or opposition to a bill that would impact electric rates.

As a Power of Community member, you are provided with background material on electric utility issues and newsletters on important state and federal legislation. From time to time, you might be asked to contact your elected officials about a particular piece of legislation that is being considered. You are never under any obligation to do so, and can cancel your participation at anytime.

Elected officials want to hear from our members – the voters. The more people they hear from, the more they pay attention to what Oregon electric cooperatives are saying.

As a member-owned electric cooperative, we need your help to keep electric rates affordable. For the most current Power of Community information, visit ORECA'S website at www.oreca.org/powercom.php
