Liberals have ruined the state of Oregon and California. A republican has no vote in either state presently.

Oregon leadership is neglecting most of the state. Some how the policy's that work in Portland and Salem should work for the whole state. Probably not going to happen, Kate B. is power hungry.

Karen Bernheim

Should include Sisters too!

Christine Price

Don't forget us in Bend too!!

Rural counties have no representation in Oregon any more. Let us go; move the border!

Karen Scofield

If they are able to do it then Modoc county in california will be able

Stephanie Smart

We need to do something to get our children out of Oregon teachers union, away form Kate Brown, and Portland in general! Our tax dollars are funding Antifa and the political conditioning of our kids.

Mr. Awesome

Oregon is heavily Republican east of Portland.

Tired of Oregon government making it impossible to stay here cost wise. Our vote doesn't count.

Dave Voiles

Not likely to happen, but yeah. The libs are ruining this state just like CA has been ruined. Too dumb to see it. They move in, ruin the state, then have the gall to tell us to leave.

Marty Higgins

There are more republicans in California than you know and we are just as fed up with liberals as you are. Not all relocators want to bring their ideas to Oregon they are trying to flee the liberals.

Dustin Lee

The liberal big city nut bags can ruin their own homes. Let the rural communities run the rural areas.

Heather Bennett

The leftist extremists in Portland have made life difficult for conservative Oregonians. This may be the answer for Oregon Conservatives.

Shonette Benson

Maybe the map should reflect California where they have Oregon and Oregon where they have Idaho... (Redmond would be in Oregon, Bend would be in California)

Lance Nichols

The representatives of Oregon have nearly nothing in common with Eastern and Southern Oregoners and hardly consider anything other than large city agendas. Little to no representation for them.

No way!

Why the heck would you change a state's borders after more than 150 years of statehood? There's no reason to do this.

Such a dumb idea! And, of course, it devolved into politics. OR is a liberal state, overall. Don't like it, move to ID.

Marcia Y

That's the dumbest thing I've ever heard.. Why the heck should we split up our beautiful state? We just celebrated another anniversary.. The guy from Lapine who suggested it. Hey can move to Idaho.

Thom Porterfield

I'd rather join the state of Jefferson.

Chris McCann

idaho is turning blue from all the californians moving to Boise

Brad Livsey

NO MATTER WHAT ANY LEVEL OF GOVERNMENT DOES resonates to more money in someone's pocket. So........where's the money benefit and to whom will it be paid????? Not you...or you....or you.........NOR ME!

Emily Norris

thats dumb

Victoria Martin Come'

It would be too much of a tax burden for the small area left.

mike gibson

are borders stay where they are.

Latterdaysaint

Stupid idea

Dave Stalker

It is misguided. Idaho used to be part of Oregon...the Oregon Territory, so if we change anything we should absorb Idaho back into Oregon. Plus, Idaho is a hotbed of ultra right wing politics.

If we want a plastic ocean then we should continue to do what we are doing.

Because it is the right thing to do.

Stuart Alpert

hello

Larry Ewart

As much as possible

Sarah Croom

I do but I go rounds w/ my guy. Ever since China stopped taking our recycling he stopped doing it. Idk if all that is real, I have noticed that our garbage guy just loads both cans into the same dump bin & it’s not sorted. So that’s really disturbing. Every little bit helps I feel. I rec. everything

Carolyn Morris

Misty Schrotberger

My mom has a cow if we don't

kaycstamper

I do what I can but live in an area where they don't have it. Still I save bottles and cardboard to take to recycling. I cook from scratch so don't really have cans.

Michael Stafford

It is the least we can do to preserve our resources.

Julie Brantley

We pay by the pound for certain items so why not pay less and recycle - it's the right thing to do for me and the environment.

JoãoVitorJ J

Yes, I recycle

Milena Santana

Cornelia H. Dunnings

I like to help the environment. I even pick up cans & bottles near my car in parking lots.

Joyce Koch

I feel I'm helping out.

Linda Jeffcoat Amick

Why not?

gena

Although I can only hope that it's useful because there is no proof that what is supposedly sent to the recyclers they actually carry through. You always hear about it not being done.

Evey G Quines

It's the least I can do

Bonita Davis

We take our own garbage to the dump and pay by the pound. Recycling is free so the more we recycle the less we have to pay.

Jill Hoadley Chalk

It's important to reuse as many things as possible.

Ann Wilbanks

Our duty to recycle. If it goes to the landfill, it piles up. Be responsible!!

Rachel Clara Smith

Of course! Everyone should recycle!

BJ Arey

We recycle everything possible. We also take cloth bags shopping, use insulated bag with blue ice for cold items & take reusable containers to restaurants for leftovers to take home.
