Tried to comment on whether R's should walk out and can't.Climate change needs to be addressed.This bill may not be the answer, but acting like six year olds is not the answer. It insults our system.

Ruth Beal

This bill will not help climate change at all. It is a TAX and will kill Oregon Businesses.

Why did she make it where we could not vote on it. The Republicans protected our right to vote.

It's just an excuse for another tax. It will destroy the economy of Oregon. These idiotic Dems are like Lemmings following each other over the cliff.

Ruth Beal

It will not help climate change and cost us poor citizens money we don't have. It is truly a stupid deal. Just like the Green New Deal. DUMB!!!!!

Sam Ackerman

Just another tax on business

Robert Northrup

It is stupid! Australia tried it, it ruined their economy. The only good that came from it was the Libs got kicked out of office.

George Mitchener

Legislation had no idea what they're getting into.

Charlene Hunter

another waste of time from Kate Brown

It’s horrible. You know it’s bad when she won’t let you vote for it.

Heidi Owen

Are you kidding ?? anyone who works and lives here would be against it. Thank God the republican senators stood up for us against gestapo brown.

alan yankus

It will hurt businesses and the overall economy in Oregon.

Elin Smith

People need to really read this bill - it may mean that your personal car is not to be allowed on the street and your employer's vehicles also. This is a very bad bill. Will hurt the state.

It's a steaming pile of bull scrap!

Paula Watt Olsen

Increase Gas Tax? I don't think so.

Susan Olberding

If you think that the person with the most $$ should have an edge in their business, then it's good. But it sure would put a lot of honest hardworking business folks out of business. It's bad for OR!

To expensive

Any person with even half a brain can see what that maggot brown is up to.

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.

Duane Wyman

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"...?
