Stop HB 2707 and HB 2031 and Save Taxpayers $290 million!

Lawmakers in Oregon have gone tax-crazy, introducing a series of new bills that would lead to a tax increase of over $1 billion dollars. It is time they realize that Oregon businesses and citizens need a tax cut, not a tax increase. FreedomWorks Oregon has taken the first step in teaching this lesson, defeating the business activities tax, saving taxpayers over $150 million already!

Governor Kulongoski and his liberal partners in the legislature are still fighting to raise your taxes in the form of HB 2707 and HB 2031. If these bills pass, they will cost taxpayers over $290 million. We must act NOW to defeat these bills. Both bills are being debated in the state senate today, so call  the capitol switchboard at (800)-332-2313 and ask to be connected to your state senator. Tell your senator to oppose HB 2707 and HB 2031.

New taxes are not paid by businesses, but by the consumer in the form of higher prices and jobs moving out of state. The new tax hike proposals would make Oregon a less competitive business environment and harm startup companies.

Despite the state’s $2 billion surplus, Oregon politicians have failed to understand that they have a spending problem, and not a revenue problem.

Call (800)-332-2313 and tell your state senator to oppose HB 2707 and HB 2031!

We must act now to save taxpayers from suffering from yet another unnecessary tax increase that would cost over $290 million in our hard-earned money.

Sincerely,

Russ Walker
