I think this will be a good way to encourage people to accept jobs. Many jobs are unfulfilled and this would be a good incentive to get people back to work.

I don't like this idea because giving them more money to go to work will not make them stay. We shouldn't be giving free money.

They've had an incentive to stay home. Just take the extra unemployment money away and then they have incentive to go back to work.

Robert Northrup

Government used tax payer money to encourage people to not work and now they want to use taxpayer money to bribe them to go to work? STUPID! Businesses should not have been forced to close in the first place.

Dianne Price

Take away the extra unemployment !

Kimmy Wasatch

People are to used to free money although it costs the working, tax paying citizens. Stop the incentives and they should and will go to work.

Just reduce the unemployment cash benefits and people will go back to work. It is suppose to be a "hand up" and not a "hand out".

I'm SICK and TIRED of businesses telling me they're sorry for the wait because they can't hire enough people to serve the public in a decent amount of time.the wait for any service out there is horrible and the ONLY REASON IS THAT THEY CAN'T FIND PEOPLE TO WORK BECAUSE THE $300WEEK UNEMPLOYMENT

Michael Miller

Seems to me the businesses that need employees should do that.

C. Adrian Clark Jr.

Enforce not accepting employment penalties.

Cut off unemployment and quit allowing people to rely on the government.

Kathy Farr

Implement livable wages with decent benefits and you'll be flooded with folks wanting to work for you. With the pandemic, they've learned that not working for sub-livable wages leaves them better off since they don't have to struggle to pay for transportation and child care.

Sussie Due

I think pulling unemployment for people that have been on it for ages would be good enough incentive. There are 1000's of jobs out there right now. They would not have a problem finding one.

No incentives or government. Everybody should just do whatever they want to do without government managing any aspect of their lives. Drive as fast as you want on any side of the road you chose. Do it for freedom !

Eric Holeik

I have been working since this pandemic started give me a bonus and my fellow employees we deserve a bonus. Barely making it.

No to more taxes, people are taxed enough!

JB Demaris

ODOT, and other state agencies need to live within a reasonable budget and the state needs to stop raising taxes!

John Conway

ODOT Leadership is totally incompetent! They spend a billion dollars they don’t have and come to the taxpayers to bail them out. As far as increasing gas tax and registration fees we already pay.40 cents per gallon and our gas prices are $2 per gallon more than the rest of the country. No more mone!

Garry Aklin

We are taxed enough ! Oregon needs to balance the budget!

Jim Hipp

We are taxed to death and I'm sick of it. Let Tina cover it out of her pocket!

Pam Ferguson

We are paying enough. The odor people have NOTbeen doing their jobs the last few years. You never see them out working like you used to and there are a lot of "mistakes" it started going down hill when they went to "teams" no boss system

We need a 'No Camp Zone ' radius around urban and sub urban areas and then have a few managed campsites within the new limit. Only 2 options. The risk to property owners and the option to live on the fringe is not right. Not a problem before 2020 and it's over time to get back to before.

Anotrher example of throwing good money after bad. The more freebies, the more homeless.
