Description

Oregonians will officially no longer see a 6-cent increase to the state’s 40 cents per gallon gas tax or hikes to title and registration fees in January due to a successful referendum effort led by two Republican lawmakers.

The Republican-led group attempting to halt a scheduled increase to Oregon’s transportation taxes has officially submitted enough required signatures to allow voters the final say next November.
