Executive Club Reminder!
7:00 pm ⊕ Wednesday March 6th ⊕ Airport Shilo Inn
AOC a campaign finance cheat? How could that be?
Defends anti-Semitic Muslim Ilhan Omar? Really?
Steyer, Bloomberg and Clinton (finally) out?
Pretty soon it'll be raining Democrats. Duck!
Will the LEFT ever figure out that if something gets
more risky it gets more expensive and less available?
Will the LEFT ever understand that regulation is a tax,
and ALL TAXES TAX THE POOR?!
Oregon state-wide RENT CONTROL
Owner has less control: less likely to rent space.
Tenants have more control: more people want to rent.
Could there be a nuttier way to address a housing
shortage then to increase demand and reduce supply?
Not to mention that the same goofy LEFT is anxious
to DOUBLE property taxes, and watch what THAT will
do to rental costs.
Time to find some folks who understand real estate.
Or is it too late, as the ink drips from Brown's pen?
Enter our March speakers:
Shawn Cleave
Shaun Jillions
Shawn Cleave has more than 19 years of state government affairs experience, quietly working behind the scenes and influencing Oregon's political theatre. Starting in 1999 as a full-time intern for Senate Majority Leader Gene Derfler, Shawn is now Government Affairs Director for the
Oregon Association of REALTORS, where he manages programs for issue campaigns and legislative development, and is responsible for an estimated $1.1 million candidate political action committee, over a two-year cycle.
Shaun Jillions is an Oregon native who got his education in communications and law in southern California, joining the Oregon Bar in 2004. He has served as Vice President of Public Policy for the
Oregon Association of REALTORS, and now is a partner in
Deckert Jillions LLP, representing a corporations, trade associations and non-profits before government entities in Oregon, and before Oregon's Congressional representatives.
They might just know enough about real estate to know how the state is about to simultaneously hamstring land owners and throw old people out of their homes, ya think?
Join us Wednesday night, and let's stir the pot.

Submitting Followup Information
Executive Club passes on meeting followup information as a courtesy to our speakers and members. Any member or speaker may submit, by email, a simple update text presentation to be sent to the club mailing list, to give the membership to have more details, or just a recap of your platform presentation. To be considered for publication, please be sure to submit your update within 24 hours of the close of the meeting. Please don't include any pictures in your text, but links to web pages, or links to things stored elsewhere on the web -- .pdf files, Word documents, or even pictures -- are OK now. Formatting and inserted pictures will not be copied, just the text content, so please don't use 4 fonts and 6 colors to convey your thoughts: you will be disappointed. Look at a previous followup email, or the bottom of most of the invitation emails, to see how they are presented. The simpler and cleaner your text, the more likely it will appear exactly the same in the email we send out. Each update must also indicate the author's name and contact information -- either a phone number, email address, or website with contact information. We reserve the right to edit for brevity, or reject, any submission.

Timely Information and Events
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
The Freedom Foundation is a regional think and action tank dedicated to removing government unions influence on the political cycle.
Last month we reported that SEIU 503 had lost 21% of it’s membership since Janus. I’m happy to report the damages are even worse than we thought. Newly reported
state numbers show that
26% of state workers have left the SEIU!
On top of that we’ve also found out that the average school district is
reporting 31% of classified school employees are opting out of the AFT.
These losses show that on the west-coast, and in Oregon specifically, our campaign is having significant impact and the unions are feeling these losses. Perhaps that’s why they’ve introduced several bills in the legislature to attempt to circumvent Janus. Most notably HB-2643, reported here by
Fox News.
