- Tillamook Bay Community College: If the measures fail, TBCC could be forced to raise tuition 9%, cap enrollment, reduce days, and eliminate faculty positions as a result of a 5% reduction in Community College State Funding.

- A tax break for 1,200 unemployed people, who will receive a tax refund on the first $2,400 they received in unemployment benefits
