Governor Patterson Favors Higher Oregon Taxes to Boost State Revenue
The governor recommends ending federal tax exemptions for Oregon residents to raise state revenue. A $5 000 income would rise from 586 in taxes to 602, with 524 federal and 78 state taxes. Critics warn higher taxes conflict with federal relief and urge against a sales tax. They note out-of-state visitors already bear Oregon taxes and emphasize taxing the broad populace.
