Oregon has been moving towards a single-payer health care system for several years and the process of setting it up is underway. While it is not likely to be operational for several years still, we have got to remain vigilant for any efforts to prevent or weaken it.

Beyond EVs, Mark believes we need to completely reform how we fund transportation systems in Oregon. Right now, much of these systems rely on revenues from Oregon’s gas tax. The problem is that decades ago, Oregon voters put restrictions into our state constitution on what these revenues can be used for and they did not leave any possibility for funding the modern transportation infrastructure we need today. Generally, this means gas tax revenues cannot be used for things like public transit, bike paths, EV incentives, and many other things that we absolutely need to turn to in order to avert the worst impacts of climate change. Mark is positioning himself to help push for the 2025 legislative session to go beyond business as usual and truly create a transportation system worthy of the 21 century. Learn more
