Quiver AI Summary
Congressman Cliff Bentz has issued a statement addressing Governor Tina Kotek's comments on the "One Big Beautiful Bill" (OBBB). He criticizes her portrayal of the legislation as a threat to families and children, asserting that it actually protects vital programs like Medicaid for vulnerable populations while reforming SNAP for accountability.
Bentz emphasizes that the bill aims to mitigate unnecessary spending and wasteful practices, including requiring states to conduct regular eligibility checks for Medicaid. He also highlights economic benefits included in the bill, such as tax cuts for farmers and job creation through increased timber harvesting.
The congressman urges Oregonians to review the OBBB independently, claiming the Governor did not acknowledge the bill's positive provisions, particularly those that address economic growth and waste reduction, and notes that no Democrat legislators from Oregon supported the bill.
