Oregon has some really great laws. Some are working well, some need adjustment.

In this case I think manufacturers will just say "not for sale in Oregon" and people in Oregon will continue to buy them. California had an advantage with it's huge market size.

Those Oregon people will now at least all find out why they're going out of state for the garbage and be informed.
