2025 City Day at the Capitol
Join Us in Salem for City Day at the Capitol on January 28
Registration Now Open
City Day at the Capitol is the LOC's premier advocacy event of the legislative session. It’s the opportunity to stand with other city officials from around Oregon in support of the LOC’s advocacy efforts. It is also the time to let legislators know how actions they take could impact local communities and the difficult decisions we make. By coming together, our collective voices will make a difference to advance our legislative agenda.
Highlights of City Day at the Capitol will include presentations from the LOC’s government relations team on legislative priorities, and briefings from state elected leaders about their priorities for the 2025 session. You will also have time for individual visits with your legislators, afternoon seminars and a special reception with legislators and staff that will officially kick off the LOC’s Centennial Year. We expect nearly 200 people to attend.
NEW – JUST ADDED: we are excited to announce that a full-day Youth Summit will be held in conjunction with City Day! More details to come on this special opportunity for youth delegates from across the state to visit the Capitol and meet with their legislators!
