Eugene, Oregon— On the occasion of the one-week deadline to register to vote-- Tuesday, October 13th-- Congressman Peter DeFazio’s Campaign will hold a Virtual Phone Bank with the Oregon College Democrats today from 3:00 PM to 6:00 PM:
“We are excited to have such powerful grassroots support, including from our amazing volunteers with Oregon College Democrats who will be making calls tonight to re-elect Peter DeFazio for Oregon’s 4th Congressional District. This election could not be more critical for Oregonians. Affordable healthcare is on the line. Federal wildfire and COVID relief is on the line. The minimum wage is on the line. Every single vote will count in this race, and it is imperative that Oregonians make their voices heard by registering to vote before Tuesday’s deadline and casting their ballots early,” said Carly Gabrielson, Congressman Peter DeFazio’s Campaign Manager.
