Thanks to the Oregon legislature that passed the Clean Energy Bill of 2021! Some of those that said YES! KOTEK, RAYFIELD, CAMPOS, FAHEY, STEINER, WAGNER, PHAM, LIEBER , BYNUM…..to name a few

We worked very hard on this bill, so disappointed that it will probably not move this session.
Workers and employers all loved our approach. The resistance is from the licensing boards themselves, who are not too enthusiastic about change nor accountability.
Most baffling, Democrat leadership will not allow the bill to move forward. We have the votes.
I represent the people of my District, not the boards. We must modernize our health care licensing systems if we want to attract and retain the best and brightest.
This is about access to care, plain and simple.
I recently spoke with a sheriff in the metro area that shared with me that the foreign drug cartels are advertising Oregon as a place where “everyone does drugs and nobody gets in trouble.”
#Measure110 - the unmitigated legalization of the most dangerous and addictive drugs in history - has created economic conditions that enable the cartels and drug traffickers to profit millions of dollars by crushing families and communities across Oregon.
As Oregon’s next Attorney General, I will rebuild the Organized Crime Division at the DOJ, aggressively take on drug traffickers, and work with local law enforcement kick the cartels out of Oregon for good. #orpol
The Republican House Bill 4036 delivers what Oregonians deserve and expect to help decrease overdoses and get people effective treatment.
The Democrat legislators "compromise" House Bill 4002 is a fake fix.
Nike is laying off workers after they got a massive tax break for a commitment to hiring. Do we get that tax cut back? #orleg#orpol

Let's get real, Oregonians. Traitor @GovTinaKotek will shove whatever changes she wants down our throats however subversivly she has to to please her handlers. @ORDems will do the same. Oregon is a captured state beyond hope. Good luck carving out a beautiful life here!
The progressive left is looking for a political fix to BM110 in order to appear like they made change while continuing the same disastrous policies.
We have a real fix based on evidence supported by the experts. The Democrat Majority has smoke and mirrors.

🚨 WE NEED YOUR HELP TO GET THIS DONE!
I have introduced bipartisan, bicameral legislation with the goal of modernizing our health care licensing programs across the board. House Bill 4071 Amendment-1 replaces the base bill and establishes a Health Professional Licensing Modernization Task Force to tackle this issue. Our goal is to streamline the licensing process, eliminating unnecessary requirements, processes, and documentation, with a renewed focus on applicant service. In my opinion, our overarching goal should be to protect patient safety by onboarding qualified applicants as quickly as possible with excellent customer service. #orpol

This is incredibly important to understand: Republicans and Democrats in our legislature are working together to price us out of our own property.
1) SB 762 was passed in 2021 with bipartisan support. This is the "wildfire mapping" bill that declared nearly all of Oregon's rural properties as fire zones. As a result, no bank in the nation will finance a rural property in Oregon. Only cash buyers. Now, the largest private property owner is a Chinese billionaire. Read the bill, look who voted for it (Drazan, DBS, etc.). https://t.co/RZyM48HBBs
2) Currently, in Oregon, property taxes can only be increased at the county level, by majority vote of the citizens. HJR 201 is moving fast in the current session and aims to remove the current property tax law to allow the State to increase property taxes without limit. It also removes the current limits in place for property value assessments, which effect the amount of everyone's gross property tax. A rushed hearing has been announced on this bill for Tuesday Feb 13. Watch it, track the who the "aye" and "nay" votes are. https://t.co/gzEQFwodIV
The combination of these two bills will forever destroy the power of all Oregonians. Property ownership is the foundation of a free society. That foundation is being dissolved right before our very eyes. The transfer of this wealth will go to the Chinese and their interests.
Last session I introduced a bill, the PERS Protection Act, that would have protected public pensions from activist investing that puts public retirees and taxpayers at risk. The progressive majority would not even give it a hearing much less a vote.
Unfortunately, with the blessing of Governor Kotek, Oregon is no longer prioritizing the fiduciary interests of retirees. Instead, they are full steam ahead promoting a misguided climate plan.
“It’s actually an arrogant plan that presumes government officials should push their climate agenda without regard for any of the costs and tradeoffs associated with their transition to energy poverty."
