Tax the citizens to pay lawyers for illegals, and then throw money at "education" which actually just pays for previous PERS retirement packages.

She's a nut job to say it nicely and is trying to turn this state into her lovely brother's state! I can't believe she was reelected.

Not a dime for CPS until it is reformed and no money for abortion providers.

It is hard to believe any state governor would make a priority of around 2 million to take care of illegal immigrants instead of using the money of legal citizens for a process that actually help us.

83 BILLION dollars, are you kidding. This is Oregon not California. I would like to see how much it would benefit the citizens of this great state. And not a penny should go to the undocumented.

Not if it involves me paying even more property taxes. Which it probably would.

Governor Brown is spending way too much money and trying to make up for the statements made against her during election. We can't afford to become another California.

Really? I am working every day to pay taxes to provide legal defense for illegal aliens? Might be time for me to take my many tax dollars to another state.

Our Governor is not acting in a fiscally responsible manner. She needs to tighten the strings of the purse rather than flippantly spending money we do not have.

Typical progressive. Let's take our hard earned taxes and spend them on people not from this country while neglecting our own, and of course, they'll want more taxes next.

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.
