By Taxpayers Association of Oregon

Oregon passed the biggest tax in state history with the Corporate Activities Tax which not only delivered BILLIONS in new taxes but did so way above projections.

At the same time, in Portland politicians pushed through over a billion in new property taxes to build some of the most expensive schools in America.

The result has been families fleeing these high taxes, and taking their students with them. Since 2018, Portland has lost nearly 6,000 which is the equivalent to the size of three high schools.

The school district now must close as many as 10 schools.
