    The document proposes a ballot question for students to vote on whether the ASUO should fund the Oregon Student Public Interest Research Group (OSPIRG) to allow it to hire professional staff. OSPIRG is a statewide, student-directed nonprofit founded in 1971 that conducts investigative research and advocacy on issues like healthcare costs, the environment, and money in politics. It brings this research directly to decision-makers. A yes vote supports funding OSPIRG, while a no vote opposes funding at a level that allows hiring professional staff.
