Oregon Measure 118 - $1,600 for every Oregonian, paid for by giant corps who mostly pay less taxes than you do. (www.yesonmeasure118.com)

I posted about this 3 months ago and it was $750--glad to see the measure is going for it. The $1,600 is per person, not household. Minors count.

Large corps ($25m in revenue minimum) pay.

This seems like a slam dunk great idea on the face of it, but I urge you to learn more about this before voting for it. For me, personally, I'm a bit on the fence, specifically because of the impacts to the general fund.

Here's an interview from the Oregon Center for Public Policy, which is a nonpartisan research group. https://www.ocpp.org/2024/09/12/measure-118-podcast/#:~:text=Oregon%E2%80%99s%20existing%20corporate%20minimum%20tax
