At the end of the day, these are our representatives who were elected by the people. When the people speak up, it's difficult for those representatives not to listen.

Elected officials should be listening to their constituents. They are representing the people or should be.

I don't think dramatic protests carry as much weight as individual complaints or other forms of protest when it comes to persuading legislators of change.

No, it's amusing to them all. Considering the majority of the time their minds have already been made up, as to their ill judgement and direction. Just (feel good) common courtesy to us the public

Dave Voiles

I think it used to make a difference, not anymore. the dems are like the Borg. They think only of their agenda, just look at the divisiveness in our state. All socialists now.

Heidi Owen

They are all bought and paid for. especially here in Oregon.

No. Unless you're Trump. He's been having "campaign" rallies throughout his term in office. I can't see any influence that has come from them, except to boost his giant, but fragile ego.

Leslie Ann

They never have care and they never will. The people don't mean anything to the government.

I see kids riding them all over Redmond . North end near Elton middle school and around Rimrock. Someone’s going to be hurt .

Barb Burns

There are 3 in the Redmond dry canyon almost every night.

John Sutton

There here in redmond also. I've seen them by Fred Meyer and the shopping center next to the Redmond high school.

Yes, and they are being ridden by young people. They should be cited by the Police for not being street legal vehicles.

Abso-friggin'-lutely!!! Bs don't pay their fair share due to tax loopholes and because they mostly acquire their enormous wealth thru investments that are NOT taxed, like income is for us peons. They also can pass their wealth on to heirs and there is no inheritance tax either.
