Liberals have ruined the state of Oregon and California. A republican has no vote in either state presently.

Oregon leadership is neglecting most of the state. Some how the policy's that work in Portland and Salem should work for the whole state. Probably not going to happen, Kate B. is power hungry.

We need to do something to get our children out of Oregon teachers union, away form Kate Brown, and Portland in general! Our tax dollars are funding Antifa and the political conditioning of our kids.

Not likely to happen, but yeah. The libs are ruining this state just like CA has been ruined. Too dumb to see it. They move in, ruin the state, then have the gall to tell us to leave.

There are more republicans in California than you know and we are just as fed up with liberals as you are. Not all relocators want to bring their ideas to Oregon they are trying to flee the liberals.

The liberal big city nut bags can ruin their own homes. Let the rural communities run the rural areas.

The leftist extremists in Portland have made life difficult for conservative Oregonians. This may be the answer for Oregon Conservatives.

Maybe the map should reflect California where they have Oregon and Oregon where they have Idaho... (Redmond would be in Oregon, Bend would be in California)

The representatives of Oregon have nearly nothing in common with Eastern and Southern Oregoners and hardly consider anything other than large city agendas. Little to no representation for them.

Such a dumb idea! And, of course, it devolved into politics. OR is a liberal state, overall. Don't like it, move to ID.

That's the dumbest thing I've ever heard.. Why the heck should we split up our beautiful state? We just celebrated another anniversary.. The guy from Lapine who suggested it. Hey can move to Idaho.

It is misguided. Idaho used to be part of Oregon...the Oregon Territory, so if we change anything we should absorb Idaho back into Oregon. Plus, Idaho is a hotbed of ultra right wing politics.

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!

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.
