By the CDC rules they are required too. That is why there have been no cases of any other type of respiratory illnesses in the USA. Back in March of last year health officials were required to report them all as COVID. Also they are including other conditions as COVID.

People here resist the CDC guidelines and we're paying for it. Seems like we are having more deaths statewide and people think it's just a game. Death is kind of permanent. Some of the other outcomes don't thrill me either.

We are all tired of wearing masks, just a few more months and we are all free. People need to have patience, as well as caring and understanding, for everyone dealing with the pandemic and have common sense.

We need to keep our guard up and stop making the same mistakes over and over. The science is clear.

It concerns me that enough people still, somehow, don't take this pandemic seriously and will continue to prolong it at everyone's expense. If those people would smarten up, businesses and individuals would all be better off sooner.

I'm more concerned about the dictatorial leadership of our state.

A dozen or two cases a day? Big deal! Out of a population of at least 200,000 people. 70 deaths in the county in the last year and the vast majority already had severe health problems. We are killing people with this insanity. People are losing businesses and our healthcare is suffering

I think that most people have already had it and that it is not as bad as we have been brainwashed to believe.

It is way past time to shut up and open up!!! South Dakota NEVER closed anything and they are far better off than Oregon! Their suicide rates did NOT spike like Oregon did! Their economy was not hurt like Oregon! Small businesses did NOT go out of business! Democrat,s are killing America!!!

The strategic oil reserves are for times like this. We should also keep an eye on the oil companies and make sure they are not making extreme profits off the backs of the American citizens. After all that petroleum is being pumped from American taxpayers land that has been leased to these oil co.

No, the reserve is not for time like this, it is for times when we don't have oil available. We do have oil available now, and a LOT of oil available. It is just that Biden (and pseudo-environmentalists) don't want us to use it.

The US shouldn't be relying on foreign sources of energy when we have more than enough to be energy independent again. We were energy independent just over one year ago. But that ended on day one of this administration.

Absolutely! Prices are way too high! Just another attempt of oil companies taking advantage of a big situation like in the 1970's.

Explain why oil companies would not provide as much oil as possible at a time when prices are sky high. No, the prices are high due to speculation of shortage, given Biden's refusal to open up the spigot (the oil leases he claimed unused are not proven, exploration still necessary. ANWAR is KNOWN

We may need our reserves for war before this is over. Increase supply and lower costs by reversing Biden's orders and policies. https://americansforprosperity.org/biden-policies-raising-gas-prices/?fbclid=IwAR3jOvKpxrWnyT1iz2JrBflODu-aV7aHZdj_B4JgTndUI-8XFvAwXp3M1Jw

Absolutely not. Oil prices (and therefore gas prices) would drop dramatically if Congress would just reverse the disastrous executive orders Biden has put into effect restricting U.S. oil production.

Why tap into a reserve that is meant for when Oil is unavailable? We have plenty of oil available, it is just that irrational environmentalists don't want us to use it: https://www.realclearenergy.org/articles/2022/03/07/greenpeace_environmentalism_allowed_putin_to_invade_ukraine_820399.html

These letters allow people who can't financially compete with investors the opportunity to stand out.

It's your property, you should be able to use whatever information you want to decide the sale. Say I'd rather sell my property to a local family instead of a corporate developer that should be my choice.

Yes they should. That is how I sold a piece of real estate I had. Happened four years ago. Was given a higher offer from a developer but I went with the people that sent me the letter. I was able to pick who was going to live next door to me. Have never regreted it. They are the best neighbors!

Who cares? How is it not fair? Anyone can write a letter. Just another issue liberal politicians waste time and money on.

We have a Democrat controlled legislature that thinks it should have total control over our lives even to the extent of taking away our freedom of speech.
