About the event
OEC and the Make Polluters Pay coalition are holding an Advocacy Day in Salem to pass the Climate Resilience Superfund!

Our communities are paying the price for Big Oil’s climate disasters. Our neighbors are losing their homes, and sometimes even their lives, to wildfires, floods, and extreme heat. Cities and states are spending billions to respond to nonstop climate disasters and extreme weather events. But instead of paying their fair share for the damage they’ve caused, global fossil fuel companies continue to rake in massive profits at our expense. It’s time they’re held accountable.
Make Polluters Pay Advocacy Day
When: Monday, February 16th, 2026 (all-day)
