The Govenor needs to listen to the People and stop making this state another California.

Cap and trade is a hidden tax and will not accomplish reduced pollution.

The lunatics are running the asylum in Salem. This is the only option Republicans have to stop this incredibly stupid bill that will have no effect on the climate and will financially ruin Oregon.

They are doing what they can to speak for their constituents because Kate Brown doesn’t listen or (presumably) care.

Governor, it's Government By The People For The People. Let the people of Oregon vote on your Cap & Trade.

A better question is, why are the Dems not allowing this vote to go to the people? This is NOT an emergency. Good for the Republicans for bringing this to everyone's attention!

This bill is an extreme assault on our rights. It will do not one damn thing to help the climate. It is nothing but another money grab that effects rural communities, the middle class.

I believe Brown is destroying the Oregon Democrat Party. I also refuse to call them the Democratic Party.

Democrats have no intention of working with Republicans. They only need them to make a quorum to validate their vote.

I don't believe walking out is a very responsible way for our State Senators to act. Just because our US Senate is made up of totally irresponsible people doesn't mean our State senators need to copy

I do not like cap and trade, however, the Repugnant Party did the walk out in Wisconsin, and all it does is show how irresponsible they are, and what power does to their wee little minds.

Safe parking programs have a proven track record of successfully taking people from being homeless into having a place of their own. Safe parking programs cut down on costs to cities for ambulance calls, police calls, visits to emergency rooms and mental health crises that costs taxpayers money.

Perhaps? Hiding the un-housed in various random locations doesn't solve much. This is just another band-aid solution! Seems just the latest adaptation of "kicking the can down the road"...?

People should not have to put up with annoying intrusive lights that inconsiderate neighbors install
