Opponents of Oregon Democrats' transportation bill are already raising money to send it to voters

Former state Sen. Brian Boquist filed a political committee to fight the bill last week.
The article from OPB dated June 13, 2025, discusses a proposed ballot measure in Oregon aimed at increasing transportation funding through a new tax on electric vehicles and a slight increase in the gas tax. The measure, backed by a coalition of business and labor groups, seeks to address the state's infrastructure needs. However, it faces opposition from Senator Brian Boquist, who argues that the tax burden should not be increased on Oregonians and suggests alternative funding methods, such as redirecting existing state funds. The debate highlights the ongoing struggle to find sustainable funding solutions for transportation infrastructure in the state.
