Doesn't matter where the money's going, our state simply can't afford this proposed budget! Where's it all going to come from?

2 BILLION in new taxes from the idiot Governor. Pathetic.

Rashid Kashik

Hey come on, those illegal aliens are expensive!!!

Robert 'Lew' Lewandowski

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

Chris Hunt

School's great ,but why should we pay for legal fees for imagrants they take enough away from us

Rashid Kashik

Don’t be fooled, Chris. We are not talking about immigrants. We are talking about illegal aliens... people who have no business even being here. Now we pay their legal defense??? RUFKM???

cristianne herbst

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.

Heidi Owen

she is the biggest problem in our state!!!

Brandy Barr

SHE NEEDS TO BE FIRED, SHE IS STEALING OREGON TAXPAYER MONEY FOR HER OWN AGENDA!!!

John Driscoll

Waste and increased waste.

JohnWayne Kenneth Pool

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

Richard Moore

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.

Douglas E. Wilson

This is absolute craziness!

Ben Wiborg

She’s concerned about other agendas other than the state.

Richard Dillard

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.

Ka San

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

Len Parsons

We keep throwing money at the problem but fail to fix the real problem.

Wanda Hancock

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.

Rashid Kashik

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.

CraigMary Johnson

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.

Dave Voiles

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.

Gramma Jean

I have not been impressed with anything Brown has done so far.

We should all be in favor of anything that creates a safer community for all of us, regardless of political affiliation. Since our federal funds have been decreased, we need another form of revenue to supplement our fire fighting revenue.

Yes, and do some more logging and cleaning the forest

Oakley Taylor

Do you not value trees and animals? Do you understand how precious the forest is for all of us? This is not a partisan issue. It's a matter of how we value life of all kinds, animal and humans alike. Please think about your words before speaking.

The federal budget deficit would be EASILY diminished if the Rs in Congress would vote to make the tax system fairer by making the top richest pay their fair share. But they won't. They'd rather take from the poor+ middle class and sale public lands vs. doing the obvious and fairest remedy!!

Oakley Taylor

Bravo!

Karen Thrower

It is a shameful idea. These lands belong to all of us, and are not for sale.

Oakley Taylor

True dat.

Scott Taylor

Hey, If Mike Lee wants to sell Utah's public lands, see how his constituents like it with theirs. Stay away from Oregon and the other states who don't like it. If Trump wants his big ugly bill to pass, reimburse the government for what the taxpayers pay for his golfing at his resorts + his parade.

Oakley Taylor

Yay to you!

Oakley Taylor

This would be a crime and one that is irreversible. If Trump needed the money so bad, maybe he shouldn’t have spent our hard-earned tax money on his birthday parade. I am a public land owner and I oppose this proposition. How dare Mike Lee try pulling off this crap on us. We’re not stupid.

Carol Yetter

Public lands are our heritage due to the foresight of great individuals. Only those interested in profiteering propose and support the rape of Oregon and public properties.

Oakley Taylor

So true.
