Support our PAC: The Future of Racing in Oregon PAC

CONTRIBUTE TODAY!

Help support FROG's legislative efforts in Salem by making an online contribution to the FUture of Racing in Oregon Political Action Committee.

The PAC is dedicated to:

  • to the protection, preservation and furtherance of the public interest of horse racing in Oregon;
  • to the strengthening of the Oregon economic system through jobs, products and services supported by the racing industry; and, 
  • to the protection and advancement of the horsemen involved in the racing industry.

What does the PAC do?

It enables the FROG to support legislators who share our views. It does this by making contributions to key leaders and members of the legislature.

The profession has enjoyed a long list of legislative victories, but none of those successes would have been accomplished without legislators who listen to and support our position. It is more important than ever that we continue to support those who protect our interests.

Our interests include not only what is important to horse racing but also to a broader base of business clients.
