Ozzie Rose |
Testifies that Oregon’s current tax structure doesn’t work and
something needs to be done. States that this is the best body to rationally
pick out what is best for Oregon and that they should take on the responsibility
of developing a plan and going out and selling the plan to Oregonians.
Suggests that if they cannot do this, they should at least develop a plan
that interest groups could go off of and sell to the public. Discusses the
timing of putting tax reform on the ballot. |
