APANO Day of Action, February 15th

Join more than 50 community members on this collective day of action as we advocate for issues important to Asian and Pacific Islanders. We believe that anyone can add their voice to influence policy and gain more knowledge of the political process. Last year, community members made a difference in passing laws to expand voting rights, providing sick time for workers, and improve outcomes for English Language Learners. Be part of a powerful movement to advance racial justice in Oregon!

What's happening in 2016? Our state's lawmakers will be meeting for 35 days in February 2016. During this period called the "short session", they will be reviewing and voting on policies that have an impact on our communities. This means members can directly give input, and advocate for issues.

APANO’s priority issues for 2016:

  • minimum wage
  • affordable housing
  • comprehensive health care


The day will entail meeting with legislators, a training to help prepare for meetings, and tour of the capitol building. Lunch will be provided and transportation will be available upon request.

For more information, please contact Kathy Wai, Policy Coordinator at kathy@apano.org

What’s a Rich Text element?

The rich text element allows you to create and format headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, images, and video all in one place instead of having to add and format them individually. Just double-click and easily create content.

Static and dynamic content editing

A rich text element can be used with static or dynamic content. For static content, just drop it into any page and begin editing. For dynamic content, add a rich text field to any collection and then connect a rich text element to that field in the settings panel. Voila!

How to customize formatting for each rich text

Headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, figures, images, and figure captions can all be styled after a class is added to the rich text element using the "When inside of" nested selector system.
