Dentists of Oregon Political Action Committee

What is DOPAC?

DOPAC is the non-partisan political action committee associated with the Oregon Dental Association. It provides contributions to members of both major political parties, supporting candidates who align with our vision of quality oral health care. DOPAC offers dentists a powerful means to inform candidates for public office about the challenges confronting oral health care professionals and the patients they serve.

How is DOPAC funded?

DOPAC is primarily funded by ODA members through a portion of membership dues. It also accepts additional voluntary contributions from individuals. For a detailed list of DOPAC contributions, see the DOPAC Expenditures page.

Get Involved!

Candidates best connect with their constituents. Therefore, DOPAC aims to strengthen relationships between ODA members and their legislators. As an ODA member, you can attend events representing DOPAC and the Oregon Dental Association. To learn about upcoming events in your area, Join the ODA Action Team.
