Podcast Overview
<p><b>Oregon has a reputation as a progressive state. Democratic supermajorities control the legislature. We pass symbolic resolutions. We talk a good game about equity, climate action, and workers' rights.</b></p><p><br></p><p><b>But the actual policy outcomes tell a different story.</b></p><p><b>Progressive bills die in committee. Corporate tax breaks get protected. Housing remains unaffordable. Education funding lags. The gap between Oregon's reputation and reality keeps growing.</b></p><p><br></p><p><b>Why? Because Oregon's Democratic establishment is funded by the same corporate interests that fund Republicans everywhere else. The money controls the votes. The machine protects itself. And working families lose.</b></p><p><br></p>
