There are an array of taxes in dispute. These taxes fund a variety of services, including social services such as Addiction Treatment and Prevention. • FEDERAL & STATE ESTATE TAXES: Generally speaking, currently, the first 3.5 million a person inherits is tax free. After 3.5 million the federal tax liability is 45%. Estate taxes are complicated. Oregon also has an “inheritance tax” (or Estate Tax). Wealthy people are attempting to completely eliminate Estate Taxes. This effort is largely occurring at the Federal level. • OREGON GAS TAXES: Former Oregon state Sen. Gary George, a Republican from Newberg, is launching a petition campaign to repeal the six-cent gas tax - and perhaps other transportation fee hikes as well. Insiders have speculated that this petition will be unable to garner the required signatures to make the ballot. • THE TWO BIG TAXES IN JEOPARDY: The 2009 75 th Ses- sion of the Oregon Legislature voted in two big taxes; 1) an increase in personal taxes on wealthy people making more than $250,000 per year (HB2649), and 2) an increase in the Corporate Minimum Tax (HB3405). Various groups such as; The Taxpayer Defense Project and Oregonians Against Job-Killing Taxes are collecting signatures for a ballot measure that would repeal HB2649 & HB3405. Oregonians Against Job-Kill- ing Taxes is led by business groups such as; various city chambers of commerce throughout Oregon, the Beer & Wine Distributors Associa- tion, various home builder associations, restaurant associations and the Oregon Republican Party. The “Two Big Taxes” raise about $800 million for the State. If these groups are successful in their signature drives, and are able to pass ballot measures in January to repeal taxes on Oregon’s wealthiest residents, there will likely be major cuts to Oregon’s social services, including Addiction Treatment.

What can you do at this point to prevent major funding cuts?

Contact everyone you know, present information regarding the devastating impact of cutting $800 million out of the state’s budget. Inform all your friends, family, neighbors that signing a petition would mean cuts to Oregon’s most vulnerable residents and will put addictions, treatment, and prevention in a precarious position. Tax opponents argue that job losses cause suffering of Oregon’s poorest residents in-need, causing homelessness, unemployment and hunger. Yet, these are precisely the people who will be harmed by tax cuts to Oregon’s wealthiest residents resulting in social service cuts.

Do you have challenging marijuana primary clients?

Up In Smoke is a four hour educational intervention for marijuana primary clients. Up In Smoke is NOT a treatment program. It is an adjunctive 4 hour

intervention that can be used with your treatment clients.

Up In Smoke is used by DUII treatment programs, EAP’s, probation/parole officers, drug courts, judges,

attorneys, county evaluators, the Oregon Board of Pharmacy, and the OHSU Transplant Unit.

Currently, the Up In Smoke 4-hour intensive educational intervention course is offered in

Roseburg, Portland, Hillsboro and Clackamas. Portland & Hillsboro: Eric Martin
