Add Your Video, Get Your Voice Heard

The restaurant industry, more than any other in Oregon and the across the nation, has suffered the most significant sales and job losses since the COVID-19 pandemic began a year ago. State and federal lawmakers want to hear from our restaurant operators and employees about how the pandemic has impacted you and your business, what changes you’ve had to make, and what your outlook is like moving forward.

These are important stories to share and we're helping to ensure they get heard by policymakers.

The National Restaurant Association has created an easy platform for you to record a quick selfie video and share your story. The association will be assembling an advocacy video that illustrates what this industry has endured, why we are not giving up, and what our outlook is moving forward. They will then share the finished video with Congress, policymakers and influencers in Washington. ORLA would also like to share your stories with our state lawmakers.
