[Caevlist] New Oregon registration fees for EVs

[Craig Hudson]

Like many, I was not aware of the impact to us conversion folks....

Fiscally, it raises $930M next biennium and grows as more efficient

It would be curious to learn how the gas tax revenue has decreased over

Voting recorded here... pretty much divided by the party lines
https://gov.oregonlive.com/bill/2017/HB2017/

   - House: 39 Yea and 20 Nay
   - Senate: 22 Yea and 7 Nay


Overwhelming support....
