# Voice your startup concerns to the Oregon legislature

While you may not have time to educate elected officials on your needs as a startup founder, there are organizations that spend significant time in Salem trying to do just that. One of them is RAIN. And its CEO is a [former startup founder](https://siliconflorist.com/?s=osoeco). But even though she gets what you’re going through, [she’d love to have your direct input](https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/OR-Biz-Survey) on what she shares with the Oregon House Revenue Committee, this month.

> On Sep 28th there is an Oregon House Revenue Committee meeting taking place and the committee is hoping for RAIN Catalysts to provide the following data to help inform current/future policies — as well as learn about the specific struggles and needs that Oregon business owners like yourself are facing.

To provide your insights, please complete this brief survey on [barriers and needs for Oregon businesses](https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/OR-Biz-Survey).
