Oregon Business & Industry is the new voice of the state’s corporate lobby

Oregon’s two major corporate lobbying groups completed their merger Friday, establishing a new organization to serve as the primary voice of the state’s business community.

Oregon Business & Industry http://www.oregonbusinessindustry.com/ replaces the state’s oldest business organization, Associated Oregon Industries, and the 17-year-old Oregon Business Association. It claims 1,600 members, and says a larger organization will enable it to lower expenses and amplify its voice.
