..."Hamsher said farmers constantly find themselves in tough financial situations. “Their whole livelihood, the whole success of their ranch is interdependent upon the weather,” he said. “We have drought and there are rains and [rising commodity] prices.”
Senate Bill 955 has been sent to the Joint Ways and Means Committee.
That means passage is largely a question of whether there will be money available when the budget wrangling begins in earnest at the end of the 2023 Oregon legislative session.
Oregon lawmakers must finish their work by the end of June."

This is why you have over a dozen counties in Oregon who want to join idaho. Nobody ever discusses the bad fiscal policies and the horrible taxation that businesses including Farmers have to deal with. Progressives don't want to talk about this and President Biden wants to raise 5 trillion in taxes.
