The Oregon Education Association (OEA), representing 41,000 educators, aims to become Oregon's largest political action committee by 2026 through increased political engagement and member assessments. Internal documents reveal plans to advance resolutions on taxation, artificial intelligence, and racial justice, while acknowledging ongoing budget deficits since 2018-19. The OEA has contributed funds to political campaigns and ballot measure organizations, including donations to candidates like Tina Kotek.
