Why I’m Voting NO on the Proposed Meals Tax, Measure #15-180 – by Donna Bowen

As most of you are aware, Oregonians absolutely hate taxes. We stand firm and united in this agreement time and time again. A good example is the fact that there is no sales tax in Oregon. A sales tax has been rejected at the polls nine times in ninety years.
