🎙️ Chamber Minute with Rosey
Hi friends, it’s Rosey with another Chamber Minute!
It’s the final week of the legislative session, and things are heating up—especially when it comes to tourism funding and liability protections.
Let’s talk SB 3962, which addresses critical tourism dollars, and SB 1196 with the -1 amendment, a liability waiver reform bill aimed at protecting businesses in health, recreation, and sports. These industries are the backbone of our South Coast economy. Unfortunately, past state court rulings have made liability waivers nearly useless—causing insurance carriers to pull out of Oregon entirely. We’re pushing hard for this reform to help prevent skyrocketing costs for both businesses and consumers.
We’re also supporting SB 123 and SB 125, which would prevent pharmacies and Medicaid service providers from being double-taxed under the CAT Tax. These exemptions are common sense—we must protect our small businesses from unnecessary burdens.
Our Legislative Action Team is working tirelessly through the final days of the session, keeping business at the forefront. In fact, it kept me from attending a ribbon cutting today that I really wanted to be at. But when you get a shot to speak with your legislators—you take the shot!
We’re fighting to make the best possible decisions for the South Coast—and we won’t stop.
