How successful is AOI in representing business in public policy?
AOI’s legislative success is without parallel. AOI introduces and gets passed more bills than any other business association in Oregon. For example, only about 30% of bills introduced in the legislature become law. In contrast over 70% of bills backed by AOI become law, and over 90% of bills opposed by AOI as antibusiness are defeated. In addition, state agency rules are carefully analyzed by AOI and we represent businesses before many state agencies and influence the regulatory process.
