Our Legislative Work
The 2013 Legislative Session Holds Great Promise
PSJ begins the 2013 legislative session with real optimism and momentum. We are working with a large coalition of diverse and powerful voices and receiving leadership from the Governor. This could be a year when Oregon takes a giant stride forward in its approach to building safe and healthy communities.
Our goal is to reduce the amount we spend on corrections and reinvest those savings to strengthen a smarter, more effective public safety system that invests in addiction and mental health treatment, victim and re-entry services, and community corrections.
PSJ's Legislative Goals
Flatline Prison Growth
Adequately Fund Victim Services
