Oregon lawmakers should use the revenue surplus to make sure all Oregonians get a #fairshot next session. #orleg

[Dirk VanderHart @dirquez]

New Oregon revenue forecast is dropping today. Economists say the state might bring in roughly $530M more this budget cycle than expected just three months ago -- and about $1.1B more in general fund resources than expected when lawmakers passed a budget last year. #orleg

Power to the People! Thanks to the hard work of activists, community leaders, and lawmakers we have a lot to celebrate! We won't quit fighting until ALL Oregonians have a fair shot at success. Learn more at: https://t.co/jABUbmWWdl #orpol #orleg #PeoplesBudget

Oregon celebrates a win for climate justice! #HealthyHomes just passed the #Oregon House. This funding means essential home repairs for low-income Oregonians to withstand extreme weather. Thank legislators who supported SB 1530 now: https://t.co/HJYHQ5sOzX #orpol #orleg

Oregon has some of the worst arrest disparities in the country and a public defense system in crisis.

By making addiction a crime, HB 4002 adds thousands more people to caseloads. People struggling with addiction need access to detox and treatment services – not HB 4002. #orleg

This afternoon lawmakers hold their first – and perhaps only – hearing on HB 4002.

Instead of rushing to criminalize people for addiction, #orleg should deliver the treatment services Oregonians have been deprived of for decades. That's a solution. #orpol
