2017 OFIR billboard campaign draws compliments
During the opening of the 2017 Legislative session, OFIR is running a billboard campaign to educate taxpayers to the burden of being a sanctuary state. Taxpayers spend over a billion dollars in services to illegal aliens living and working in Oregon.
If the Oregon Legislature is looking for funding - perhaps they should look at cutting the services they are funding for illegal aliens?
