Organizations | Clean and Prosperous America

We are working in Oregon's 5th and 6th to motivate rural young voters. 50% of our people under 26 have never voted, and 25% have voted once. These voters need to know they can make a difference rather than letting their parents and grandparents make decisions for them.

The purposes of the Organization are to: i. Educate rural voters on issues that matter most to them, ii. Engage with voters to encourage voting participation, iii. Hold legislators accountable for their actions, iv. Embrace rational, civic-minded rural values by modeling inclusion, respect, and fairness in all of our actions v. Empower forward-thinking candidates to run for and hold elected office in rural Oregon.
