In a changing climate, the Portland area faces major flood risks along the Columbia River. Major floods likely would cost lives, pollute our drinking water and environment, and affect tens of thousands of jobs. Vulnerable communities in the flood zone would be hardest hit.

By acting now, we can protect lives, homes, jobs, environmental quality, and save millions of dollars down in flood clean up and recovery. Congress authorized nearly $100 million for needed improvements, as long as we provide a local match. We must act now during this window of opportunity to take advantage of these federal funds.
