Republicans Blast Kotek's Transportation Proposal
(Salem, OR) -- Republicans in the Oregon Legislature say Governor Tina Kotek's call to repeal the Transportation bill shows she heard voters who didn't want higher taxes. Republicans say the bill was rushed and deeply flawed. It would have raised the gas tax, title and registration fees, and the payroll tax. Kotek called for a bipartisan effort to design a new transportation package. Republicans say that's what they called for all along and the Governor's actions will determine whether she's serious or not.
