Over the past six quarters, the revenue has shown a downward <br />trend. Added to that, the FCC has issued a mandate that 9-1-1 services migrate to an <br />enhanced technology, also known as Next Generation 9-1-1 or NG9-1-1,so that callers <br />may access emergency services through text messaging and other advanced <br />communications capabilities regularly in use outside of public safety. Oregon Emergency <br />Management will be conducting a study to determine the cost of this technology upgrade <br />in the next few months. The results of that study may well point to a need to actually <br />increase the current tax of 75 cents per device. Any diversion of funds would magnify the <br />gap. <br /> <br /> <br />HB 2861 <br /> <br />Relating Clause: Relating to wage discrimination. <br /> <br />Title: Prohibits discrimination against members of certain protected classes in payment of <br />wages for work of comparable character that requires comparable skills to perform. <br />14 <br /> <br /> <br />
