Oregon leads the way

It makes you proud to be an Oregon Democrat:

27 Legislators, One Blog.

All 27 members of the Democratic caucus of the Oregon House have agreed to blog together on a single blog. We believe this is the first legislative caucus in the country with a group blog.

This is a big, big, big deal. It represents a tremendous opportunity for citizens to connect directly with Oregon's House Democrats - and have a two-way conversation with them about the future of the state.

Sure, they're in the minority, but that makes it all the more important.

Last I checked, there were only about 2-3 dozen elected officials blogging (with open comments) in the country. This just about doubles that number.
