I would think the Democrats would want to know exactly where their illegal basis is, so they can move it where it is needed. Republicans want it, so they know how many the tax payers are supporting.

It helps people 70 years from now learn more about their ancestors. It helped me learn about my great grandfather. He immigrated to the US in 1860 and became a citizen in 1880 approximately.

the Congressional districts should be based on number of citizens not population since not all can vote; and the census does not collect info which might affect privacy

Because ONLY American citizens should vote on American issues. No other country would allow a non citizen to vote. Why is this even an issue?

It's not asking if you are here legally -- just if you are a citizen. What's wrong with that?

yes! Illegals won’t fill it out. So their votes shouldn’t count.

The Constitution states that all inhabitants should be counted--not just citizens.

Why should we include illegals when they are incapable of running their own government.

Because Oregon receives federal funding for each resident, whether a citizen or not. Would you rather turn away federal money?

It would be nice to have accurate #s, reflecting everyone; however, folks here legally, but not citizens, like the Dreamers, risk being deported under Trump. Until there are safeguards vs. that, No.

The purpose of a census is to count ALL people present, not just some.

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.
