A Unifying Oregon Natural Resources & Industries Event Sponsored by ONRI
We can't Wait to meet you!
We are Oregon Natural Resource Industries (ONRI). We are a non-profit 501c6, our mission is to support, defend and protect natural resource jobs, families, communities and businesses.
We need your help connecting Oregon's natural industies. We are planning a historic event in that our intent is to bring Oregon back to her roots. We live in a natural resource state, after all!
We want every natural resource Oregonian, community, association, bureau, alliance, from the cranberry bogs to the sheepherders fields, the foresters and cattle ranchers to the alfalfa growers, from every corner of Oregon to join us in this event. Our intent is to reunite Oregon’s natural resource industries as we once were long ago.
The fishermen don’t necessarily know the issues facing farmers, the ranchers don’t necessarily know the issues facing loggers, the miners don’t know the issues facing ranchers - but we’re all facing something and we all want the same thing, to be independent and continue being the stewards of our natural resources without government overreach. We are tired of being silenced and sidelined.
We are entering Oregon's Legislative long session that goes throught the end of June. How many more bills will they pass without our voice? We broke the supermajorities, no longer does Peter Courtney, Ginny Burdick and Tina Kotek reign over the House and Senate. We’ve just elected 22 new legislators, and many Representatives have moved up into the Senate. We believe the time is now to introduce Oregon’s natural resource industries, in solidarity, to our newly elected legislative body.
This event is called Stronger Together! Our goal is to have a massive amount of people gather in the park across from the capital in late March, before bills start being scheduled onto the floor. Our intent is to come together in solidarity and meet those who have been elected to represent our interests.
Parking is available at the State County Fairgrounds and shuttles will be picking up and dropping off from 9:30 qam until 2:30 pm.
We’re not going away, we’re here to stay, we want our voices heard and a seat at the table. We will not sit idle and let 2% of our land mass control the other 98%!
We will formally invite legislators to this event and take the stage to introduce themselves. The legislative calendar has been released and the natural resource committee will convene on Mondays and Wednesdays. March 27th looks like the day we will hold the Stronger Together event. We still need to make sure it doesn’t interfere with other events so people can commit to this event.
We don’t have many contacts on the eastern side of the Cascades. We need help in establishing communication to connect. We’ve been reaching out to leaders all over our state but need you to help get the word out. The people we’ve been talking to are supportive. We need to bridge the divide, we’re stronger together!
Our Board consists of a chicken farmer, cattle rancher, farm worker, log truck drivers, etc., and my family owned Seneca Sawmill until we sold to Sierra Pacific a little over a year ago. Our intent is pure and passionately driven. We leave places cleaner than when we arrived and consider ourselves as stewards of our environment. We are respectful, although we do get a little ONRI at times!
Please let us know your thoughts, if you’re willing to help get the word out to connect Oregons Natural Resource people and if you’d like to volunteer.
Sign up to learn more about the event and receive inportant updates.
