"Good Morning, Portland! It's been cold this week, dripping down to freezing temperatures most nights. Did you see some snow? Did you run out of kale? If so, THAT'S IT FOR A WHILE. We're looking at ten days of rain and ever-so-slightly warmer nights, with lows around 40 degrees! Do I ever get tired of this Madonna song? I DO NOT. Let us news."
"* Today's top story is REPUBLICANS! In the Oregon Senate, 12 Republicans ducked the scheduled vote on a contentious transportation tax. They're trying to delay the bill, skooching it past a deadline that would have put the measure on May's ballot. They'd rather have voters consider the tax in November, when they will-coincidentally, I'm sure-also be voting for governor. * Now, about the matter of Rep. Greg Smith, a state representative who serves several eastern Oregon counties, including Umatilla, Wasco, Marion, and Clackamas."
Portland will see ten days of rain and slightly warmer nights with lows near 40 degrees after a cold stretch that included brief snow. Twelve Oregon Senate Republicans avoided a scheduled vote on a transportation tax to push the measure past a deadline and potentially move voter consideration to November. Rep. Greg Smith faces a second resignation call following admission of failing to fully disclose clients of his private consulting company. Democrats are advancing a bill to decouple parts of Oregon's tax code from federal changes, a move that could restore more than $300 million to the state budget.
