It is interesting how the finance community has been silent.

It’s part of GOP’s pro-life agenda
People don’t like paying high taxes and getting poor results.
Dammit, I’m trying to relax this weekend
This tax hike is a tough sell to many Oregonians including democrats. We’re tired of paying so much both at the state and county levels and not receiving adequate services.
komonews.com/news/local/w... So much winning
Are tax cuts and deregulation really such a bad thing?
If this is such an important program than why doesn’t everyone help pay for it?
www.oregonlive.com/politics/202... If you haven’t noticed, parking has become much more expensive in Portland. With all the businesses closing, you’d think they’d encourage people going downtown.

If it’s so important, shouldn’t everyone pitch in?
When and where will we see tariff inflation?
We relish the idea
Have they ever counted the number of cyclists using bike lane on Everett? It doesn’t seem to get much usage.
Please update us on how the county is doing on homelessness, drug addiction, mental health etc.

What prevents corrupt DOJ from destroying all the evidence?
The laws of supply and demand are working fine. Let developers build more family housing. We don’t need more studio apartments. The rest will sort itself.
MAGA actually believed that Republicans were not involved withEpstein sex trafficking and alleged murder. #Gullible
As a whole, Portland has average property taxes. However, some homes have high property taxes and some have low. West side is getting screwed……again.
Is this really what conservatives want?
So, he’s either a pedophile or he’s covering for them
I think you might be surprised how many families find a $2500 tax bill to be a burden.
Socialists: “raise taxes more”
Top tax rates in NY kick in for income over 25m. Top tax in CA kick in at 1.4m. Portland top tax rates kick in at 400k. Very hard to find a city with higher taxes in the 400k - 1m range. Have you noticed that all the doctors and lawyers offices are moving out to Tigard and Hillsboro?
Ask any physician, lawyer, or small business owner about their top marginal tax rate.
This isn’t about Trump. We have highest tax rate in the country and we’re not getting much for all those taxes.
Remember Biden's State of the Union speech when he rightly said the GOP was gunning to cut Medicare/Medicaid, which he promised to never sign, and the Republicans all boo'd and MTG called him a liar? So who was lying, again?
Both parties should take some responsibility for failure to successfully negotiate.
Another nail in the coffin of our home building economy
Portland has highest tax rate in the nation. High income families will move out of Multnomah County.
I hope you will reconsider your opinion on this. P4A means that Portland has highest taxes in the nation.
Once tax rates get to a certain point, it’s a disincentive to work.
Sale of our public lands is one of the worst proposals I’ve ever ever seen.
I’m going on strike tomorrow!
Good luck running a city where nobody wants to own a business.
Highest tax rates for NY and LA don’t kick in until income is close to 8 figures. Portland has highest tax rate for people earning 6 figures.
Can you name a single business owner who supports this tax?
PPS has declining enrollment forecast for the next 20 years. Our city is withering on the vine.
Every business owner is leaving Multnomah County.
We have the highest tax rates in the country. It’s too much!
You have created a system where every business owner wants to move out of the county. That’s not a good thing.
Oregon has 5th highest Capital Gains tax rate. Where does Oregon spend all this revenue and why aren’t we seeing better results?
Please comment on Multnomah County residents having the highest tax rate in the country
Jessica Vega Peterson can’t see how harmful her policies are for Portland.
www.opb.org/article/2025... Why not have national guard help? Do we really want to pay our police force overtime to monitor a handful of anarchists.
www.wweek.com/news/city/20... Everyone wants more police……except for the anarchists.
Great, but needs smaller hands
Show some respect, wear a black suit.
To be fair, many economists thought inflation would be transitory.
Does he understand that these “protests” caused over a $1 M damage to PSU library?

Ski season is clearly over
Hard to tell what Republicans actually care about. They don’t care about democracy, health care, infrastructure, the stock market, the judiciary, etc. They’re just angry about mexicans and trans females playing sports.
Just like their health care plan. They have no plan
Just his way of saying that WI voting system has been hacked
Why is nobody talking about the 25% auto tariffs being a massive give away to Tesla?
Why not just let developers build more family housing. Supply and demand will take care of the rest.
Portland has $100M deficit. Maybe consider making it easier to build family friendly triplexes.
Will Cain doesn’t care that Goldberg held back the name of CIA agent?
Failing up
Underrated comment
If Tesla wants to start selling cars they’ll need on demand high emissions tail pipe.
They should have cut military spending and farm subsidies when they had the chance.
If they keep running deficit, the debt becomes unsustainable.
Democrats should have cut all the farm subsidies and corporate welfare when they had a chance.
Portland's draft budget recommendations show a nearly $100M gap, yet the city is sitting on over half a billion dollars in contingency. That's half a billion dollars in the bank producing interest, not results. Read the full draft here: bit.ly/3EVxmxk
Great work! Is there any way Multco could contribute? They’re sitting on a lot of money.
Between Preschool and Clean Energy taxes, there’s $1B sitting on the sidelines.
Every business owner, doctor, lawyer, etc is trying to move out of Multnomah Co. Birth rate in Portland is plummeting. Major course change is needed.
Cutting taxes would be helpful too
Given Multnomah County’s track record, it would be irresponsible to give them an additional $85m.
www.kgw.com/article/news... Taxes, homeless, crime, schools, family housing….stay focused Portland
www.kgw.com/article/news... Portland in a doom loop. Hopefully, it’s not too late.
Why have republicans not acknowledge corn subsidies?
Fear is specific. Anxiety is more generalized.
Clearly looking for a Trump promotion
