Lawmakers to steal Kicker Refund by force (HB 1177). This is every bit as bad as Grand Theft Auto. If they muster the votes to amend Oregon’s constitution (“this would require 100% Democrat votes plus two Republicans in the House and two Republicans in the Senate”), your next year’s estimated $600 kicker will vanish into thin air. They claim they’re out of money, but the Kicker money they steal won’t be used for “basic wildfire prevention like removing fire-threat brush, cut dead-diseased trees, allow for healthy harvesting, maintain forest roads for emergency access or purchase a fast-response jumbo jet super-tanker fire suppressor.” Like I’ve said before, the brain-dead Democrats in Salem are complainin’ about how they’re too broke to use our money for commonsense things, but they’re talkin’ about “a bill to give Hollywood film companies $28 million in tax breaks; a bill to cost nearly $50 million giving all government workers a work-free holiday with the Lunar New Year; a bill to spend $10 million of tax dollars for a private Portland mega-restaurant; a bill to raise through tax gimmicks $800 million for a baseball stadium; a bonus $8 million to art programs; Free food stamps for non-citizens; Free breakfast and lunch for all students — even subsidize our richest neighborhoods; Free mini-fridges, air conditioners, and cooking classes using Medicaid money meant for hospital bills and surgeries.” Let your elected state Represntative or Senator how pissed off you are, and QUIT ELECTIN’ DEMOCRATS!!!
