A perspective from Oregon’s mid-Willamette Valley

Pending bills: End daylight time?

Written January 18th, 2015 by Hasso Hering

Of all the bills introduced in the 2015 Oregon Legislature, my favorite so far is Senate Bill 99. It would take Oregon out of daylight saving time starting in 2021 if the voters approve in the 2016 general election.


Kitzhaber would tax bird seed

Written January 11th, 2015 by Hasso Hering

Tax bird seed? Yes, that’s what Governor Kitzhaber is asking the legislature to do, and it may serve as a symbol for the eagerness of Democrats to extract more money not just from households with bird feeders but everybody else as well.
