SALEM, Ore. (AP) -- Opponents of a $733 million tax increase aimed at corporations and wealthy Oregonians have raised $1.2 million to defeat it.
The group "Oregonians Against Job-Killing Taxes" has received most of its money from business interests, including $100,000 from the Oregon Bankers Association and $50,000 from Weyerhauser.
Those who want voters to uphold the tax increases in the Jan. 26 special election have raised $151,000, much of it from public employees unions.
