Everyone needs to open up their front and backyards to pitching a tent for the houseless. Share, the kitchen, fridge, bath, den, office......leave the back door open for convenience, if you're lucky have your children tutored by a well meaning waif. Your home will become there's. Awwwwww!!

We have to do something, but the real problem is the left and just look at Seattle for example, the criminals and homeless criminals have all but taken over the city! This because the left is weak on criminals and hard on Americans! Lets vote the horrible Dems out and get America back!!!

So that trash doesn't build up it safe and keeps the community from freaking out. A place to put a trailer for homeless people with access to dumping and water and electricity. Some homeless need a place that is safe and worry free. Go out and talk to the the homeless and see what they need.

City of Bend is taking steps--albeit baby steps--but an old motel is being converted and 3 managed camps are in the works. Will help only 10 percent of our unhoused population, though.

We need a controlled area to help keep the trash down. There could be people in charge of directing disposal of unwanted items, trash and out and out garbage. Supply areas for hand washing, showers, and laundry.

If you can’t afford to live here, don’t intentionally come here. Before institutions were done away with, all of these people had everything they needed. Now they have no meds, no beds and no food while they are allowed to fill up our streets.

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

Price is getting ridiculous. Average working person can't afford commuting to and from work.

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.
