Oregon wildfire victims face huge tax bills on PacifiCorp settlements; Congressional fix is stuck. 1. Electric company negligence caused fires that completely burned down over a hundreds of homes, turning people’s lives upside down. 2. Electric company is found guilty and forced to pay millions to owners of burned-out properties. 3. Instead of viewing the payments as restitution and making them whole as compensation for the damage that was inflicted upon them, Wyden’s draggin’ his feet, blocking the Oregon bill that’d exempt those payments as taxable income, so the federal bill he wrote can take all the glory. One more reason I continue to ask how this asshole keeps gettin’ elected. Oh wait – I know. The seven Democridiot-filled counties of the Willamette Valley.
