This bill fills a hole in current law exposed by a court decision. Currently, someone who just views child pornography, but does not save the file in any way, commits no crime. This makes it a crime to view the file. SB 0823 Relating Clause: Relating to tax credits for affordable housing lenders; prescribing an effective date. Title: Extends sunset for tax credit for affordable housing lenders. Sponsored by: By COMMITTEE ON FINANCE AND REVENUE URL: http://www.leg.state.or.us/11reg/measpdf/sb0800.dir/sb0823.intro.pdf Contact Respondent Dept Updated Priority Recommendation Amanda Nobel Flannery S. Jennings PDD-ADM 2/24/2011 Pri 3 Support Comments: This bill matches SB 0900. The bill extends another source of subsidy for affordable housing that works in concert with other state and local sources. This resource will help the City reach the goals set forth under Envision Eugene. SB 0884 Relating Clause: Relating to state finance; prescribing an effective date. Title: Repeals Ballot Measure 66 (2010). Sponsored by: By Senator OLSEN; Senators TELFER, THOMSEN, Representatives CONGER, PARRISH URL: http://www.leg.state.or.us/11reg/measpdf/sb0800.dir/sb0884.intro.pdf Contact Respondent Dept Updated Priority Recommendation Larry Hill CS-FIN 2/23/2011 Pri 1 Oppose Comments: SB 884 would repeal both Measure 66 and 67. The bill would also significantly lower income taxes for upper-income taxpayers and corporations. It would reduce state revenue significantly. While it would not directly impact the City of Eugene, the necessary reductions in state funding for the universities, schools and a range of state services would have an adverse effect on the city. 22 | Page March 9, 2011 IGR Committee Meeting
