This concurrent resolution honors the League of Oregon Cities for its century of work representing and supporting Oregon's 241 incorporated cities, which are home to approximately 3 million residents—70 percent of the state's population. The resolution acknowledges the organization's role in advocating for local priorities including sustainable development, infrastructure, public safety, and home rule authority since its founding in 1925. The measure highlights the League's support for major federal initiatives that benefited Oregon cities, such as the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (which directed over $4.5 billion to the state), the CHIPS and Science Act, the American Rescue Plan, and broadband expansion programs. A concurrent resolution is purely ceremonial—it expresses Congress's recognition and praise but creates no new law, funding, or requirements.
