About The Political Action Committee

TrooperPAC (Political Action Committee)

Mission: to provide financial support to state legislative candidates who are seriously committed to public safety, law enforcement, and a strong Department of Oregon State Police.

OSPOA joins a growing number of lobbying organizations who have recognized that a well-orchestrated lobbying effort during the session is no longer a guarantee for success in Oregon’s legislative arena. No matter how powerfully a lobbying effort might be waged, it will not be successful if the majority of legislators are already either politically or philosophically predisposed against it.

The bottom line for candidates is that it takes money to get elected to public office. Organizations with a legislative agenda can no longer ignore the reality of the need to participate in the financing of those campaigns.

OSPOA’s State Executive Committee has determined that the most effective manner for the organization to reinforce its overall government affairs effort is to make, through a political action committee, contributions to candidates sympathetic with the association’s legislative goals.

State and federal laws allow individuals, unions, and corporations to make campaign contributions to TrooperPAC without any restrictions, though they are not tax deductible.

Participating in the political process doesn’t cost that much in comparison with the cost to each state trooper if the organization is not involved. Please send your contribution to TrooperPAC today!
