Not concerned. Covid is here to stay. There will not be herd immunity. We will all come down with it eventually due to the mutations and weaker strains that are becoming vaccine resistant. Whether or not you are vaccinated doesn't matter. Just like the flu

There's little concern. 99% of the Delta Covid deaths correspond to the unvaccinated. The few breakthrough cases are just a minor flu with little symptoms. So masks are really an over - reaction and a dangerous reaction. The solution is to get vaccinated. Not masks.

Current studies indicate that masks provide 20% protection. And for that -- we mandate them? I don't think so.

Even vaccinated are getting long haulers Covid and children are still unprotected. We have to do our part even if it only helps a little bit at least it is better than nothing.

I'm concerned that the unvaccinated might spread covid to my granddaughter, myself, and/or my adult children. I worry about our communities and our schools. I fear it will spread like wildfire through our children, who aren't vaccinated yet. Please, please vaccinate!

230,103 COVID cases in Oregon and 2903 deaths. Virtually all those that died had underlying conditions. They did not die of COVID, Keep wearing masks and keep getting booster shots for the rest of your life. I am sorry some have lost loved ones. How about prosecuting those that created the virus.

I'm fine if you don't want to get vaccinated BUT stay home when you get Covid and don't take up space in the hospital.

The Delta Variant is all but a government and media created hoax. It is no more dangerous than a cold.

I practice a very healthy lifestyle, and I do not live in fear, which will add to compromising your immunity-check the science you’re behind the learning curve.

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.
