Issues & Agenda
ACEC Oregon develops a legislative agenda each year to ensure that the immediate concerns of consulting engineers and the public’s well-being are represented before government leaders.
As always, ACEC Oregon will be actively engaged in supporting or opposing a significant number of unanticipated issues during the 2026 legislative session. We look forward to active member involvement to help protect and promote the engineering profession in Oregon.

ACEC encourages government procurement policies that support the use of the private sector.
Oregon’s engineering companies play an essential role in helping public agencies deliver and upgrade critical infrastructure—to reduce congestion on roads and bridges, provide clean drinking water to consumers, develop energy-efficient and sustainable buildings, and enhance the security and safety of the public.
Local and state agencies that contract with engineering firms are able to acquire unique capabilities, adapt quickly to economic conditions and fluctuating workloads, ramp up their programs when funds are available, and ramp down when funding cycles demand savings.
