Wyden said he wants Oregon to overtake Alaska, which ranks first in the nation with 3,210 protected miles. “We want to beat Alaska, and I have told (Alaska Sen.) Lisa Murkowski we are going to beat her,” said Wyden. “We are tops in the lower 48. She knows we are getting ready to take the title.” Wyden added that protect- ing rivers not only has an en- control, Wyden said the econ- omy. For Wyden, that means passing policies like President Joe Biden’s “Build Back Better” infrastructure and economic plan, which includes $213 bil- lion for housing. “It’s got to get done this year, because it’s so import- ant,” Wyden said. “It would be transformative for our future.” He also is advocating to ex- pand an existing low-income tax credit, as well as create a middle-income tax credit, which would be similar to the low-income tax credit, but help people who work in pro- fessions like firefighting and nursing who can’t afford to buy 41/38/0.93 63/61/0.00 69/60/0.01 81/54/0.00 84/77/0.02 68/46/0.00 72/53/0.00 42/39/0.22 72/54/0.03 57/21/0.00 79/70/0.00 90/63/0.00 90/55/0.00 55/25/0.03 82/70/0.00 43/36/0.17 44/30/Tr 61/36/0.08 80/57/0.00 77/71/0.00 49/45/0.47 76/50/0.00 78/56/0.00 77/69/0.00 72/50/0.00 45/44/0.01 72/41/0.00 95/81/0.00 43/34/sn 71/54/s 71/59/c 94/67/c 90/79/t 67/39/s 76/62/s 44/33/sn 65/50/c 47/31/sn 79/72/s 83/65/s 92/60/s 58/31/pc 85/77/pc 48/38/pc 45/37/c 46/27/c 78/54/s 80/73/s 64/41/s 77/54/s 67/52/t 75/67/pc 70/50/s 46/34/pc 68/43/pc 93/79/s Mecca Mexico City Montreal Moscow Nairobi Nassau New Delhi Osaka Oslo Ottawa Paris Rio de Janeiro Rome Santiago Sao Paulo Sapporo Seoul Shanghai Singapore Stockholm Sydney Taipei City Tel Aviv Tokyo Toronto Vancouver Vienna Warsaw 96/73/0.00 74/46/0.04 57/37/0.00 46/34/0.00 79/63/0.52 77/63/0.00 100/70/0.00 60/49/0.00 43/25/0.03 55/36/0.00 46/36/0.10 81/72/0.06 61/43/0.00 75/52/0.00 77/64/0.00 56/34/0.00 64/41/0.00 63/44/0.00 86/77/0.22 37/32/0.18 81/69/0.17 68/61/0.00 83/52/0.00 55/54/0.14 55/36/0.00 48/34/0.00 63/28/0.04 54/34/0.20 101/71/pc 73/52/t 56/39/pc 50/39/pc 74/60/r 78/66/s 101/74/pc 65/47/pc 46/32/pc 58/36/pc 46/29/sh 81/71/c 65/38/sh 75/50/s 74/61/pc 48/33/s 64/42/pc 67/51/pc 90/77/t 45/32/pc 77/66/c 75/64/s 89/63/s 58/49/c 53/43/sh 53/42/pc 46/32/sf 43/29/sn 102/74/s 77/55/pc 61/41/pc 52/37/r 77/60/t 78/66/s 96/70/pc 66/46/s 44/28/c 63/41/s 48/32/c 80/70/t 59/33/sh 74/50/s 73/60/pc 49/36/pc 67/40/s 64/53/c 88/77/r 43/28/c 76/64/pc 76/67/pc 80/59/s 63/52/s 57/46/c 49/40/r 44/35/sn 44/30/c Find it all online bendbulletin.com NATIONAL BRIEFING Arkansas governor vetoes first-of-its-kind ban on transgender youth treatment Yesterday City Hi/Lo/Prec.
