OHF: How Will Measure 97 Impact Healthcare, Senior Services, and Education?
Event Information
Description
At this lively forum, you’ll hear the pros and cons of this controversial ballot measure that would raise an estimated $3 billion in additional annual state revenue from the largest 1,000 companies doing business in Oregon. Backers intended those funds to be used for education, healthcare and senior services, but this has been called into question by legislative counsel. You’ll hear the reaction from both sides by attending our October 5 breakfast forum.
