Today, Governor Tina Kotek issued a statement in response to the December revenue forecast:

“This forecast calls for state leaders to stay the course on core programs and act strategically on issues of top concern for Oregonians. While Oregon’s economy is strong, unknown federal impacts are on the horizon. We must build on the progress we’ve made on housing and homelessness, behavioral health and education while fighting to protect Oregon values. These challenges don’t lend themselves to quick fixes or short cuts, and real progress requires persistence and focus."
