	"description": "As an Oregonian, you know how special Oregon — and the wildlife that call this place home — is. It defines our state and is closely tied to most Oregonians&#x27; values to see fish, wildlife and habitats not just survive but thrive. HB 4134, 1.25% for Wildlife, will protect Oregon’s rich natural legacy into the future. Increasing Oregon’s statewide lodging tax, currently one of the lowest in the country (and will remain so even with the 1.25% increase), would provide a sustainable source of funds to Oregon’s Department of Fish and Wildlife (ODFW) to recover Oregon’s most imperiled species and habitat and enhance biodiversity — all of which contribute to Oregon’s tourism and outdoor recreation economy while keeping the tax at still one of the lowest in the country. With your advocacy, we have a real shot at passing this historic funding bill in the 2026 session and putting Oregon’s most vulnerable wildlife on a better path. Protecting Oregon’s wildlife and habitats also bolsters Oregon’s robust outdoor tourism economy: 2.6% of the state’s GDP supports 192,000 jobs and $16 billion in consumer spending. Investing in these resources now will continue to generate more economic opportunities for Oregon’s communities in the future. This legislation is a bold and proactive investment in Oregon’s present and future prosperity, and a reinvestment in the reason so many visitors travel to Oregon. HB 4134 will hopefully be voted on by Oregon&#x27;s House of Representatives soon, then pass to the Senate. Let your legislators know their constituents care about wildlife!",
