I’ve heard from multiple places that the text of the bill has some pretty big drawbacks, specifically enough that the governor has come out against it. I can understand the impact to businesses but it has such clear social benefits.
If the text is bad, let the legislatures pass an amendment or a new measure for us to vote on. They bungled the drug decriminalization rollout so I’m not ready to let them kill another good policy. I refuse to throw in the towel on progressive policies. Let’s do referendums every year and force the change the people or Oregon want.
Well, if you ever find yourself in Portland, OR I’ll buy you a beer. Nice of you to do that without any credit. Truly the lord’s work.
