HB2414 is an attempt to defraud the voters of the state of Oregon.

HB 2414 was gutted and stuffed with an amendment that is blatantly aimed at misleading voters if the $700 million in new, permanent taxes are successfully referred.

Conversely, if a voter chooses to oppose the legislation, they vote "no" on the referred legislation.

On April 15th, limited government activists from across the country participated in over 1,000 tea parties, with 20 held in Oregon.   The tea party movement began in response to corporate and mortgage bailouts, the $1 trillion debt stimulus plan, and President Obama’s $2 trillion dollar budget deficit.  April 25 is the focus of the next round of tea parties, when Americans come face to face with the costs of bloated government and runaway spending.
