一个共和党支持的团体“不征税俄勒冈”, 已经提交了近200,000个签名 — — 大大超过要求的门槛 — — 在2026年11月的投票中举行全民公投, 目的是阻止2025年特别立法会议批准的6个百分点的煤气税加税和其他交通费涨价。 A Republican-backed group, "No Tax Oregon," has submitted nearly 200,000 signatures—well above the required threshold—to place a referendum on the November 2026 ballot, aiming to block a 6-cent gas tax increase and other transportation fee hikes approved in a special 2025 legislative session. 这项措施如果得到确认,将推迟增税,直到选民作出决定,有可能扰乱43亿美元的预计运输经费。 If validated, the measure would delay the tax increase until voters decide, potentially disrupting $4.3 billion in projected transportation funding. 总督Tina Kotek警告说,这可能导致道路维修减少、约200个工作岗位被消除、俄勒冈州3 400英里高速公路系统服务水平下降。 Governor Tina Kotek warns this could lead to reduced road maintenance, elimination of about 200 jobs, and lower service levels across Oregon’s 3,400-mile highway system. 国务卿现在必须核实签名,这个程序可能使某些人丧失资格。 The Secretary of State must now verify the signatures, a process that may disqualify some. 以庆祝式展示的全民投票努力反映了强烈反对在未经选民直接批准的情况下加税。 The referendum effort, delivered with a festive display, reflects strong opposition to tax increases without direct voter approval.
