Vote YES on 66/67 in January 2010
Vote YES for Tax Fairness

These two ballots were referred to the ballot by a business financed campaign of anti-tax forces. 

• If you believe that taxes should be fair and paid by both individuals and business, then you need to vote Yes.
• If you believe that social services, education and healthcare have already been cut enough, then you need to vote Yes.
• If you believe that Oregon’s wealthy and corportions can pay a little more because they have received the bulk of the increases in income and wealth over the past 30 years, then you need to vote Yes.
• If you think that enough cuts have been made to Oregon’s budget, then you need to vote Yes.  If these measures fail at the ballot in January, Oregon will experience a very large hole in its budget.  Cuts to education, healthcare, public services will have to be made.

Look who provided the funding to get  these measures on the ballot and now recommend a No vote.  

It is the same business and business friendly groups who have benefited from the past 30 years of shifting tax burden from the wealthy and corporations upon the poor and middle class.  This is just another reason to Vote Yes
