Letter to Distillers - June 2023
The Oregon Distillers Guild is working on two legislative initiatives in Salem right now. We need to ask you to please do these three things which will help us all.
Creating An "Oregon Spirits Board"
HB 2976A establishes an Oregon Spirits Board to market and promote Oregon’s growing craft distilling industry outside the state. The board’s focus will be growing businesses and creating jobs, increasing national and international “Brand Oregon” visibility, and bringing tourism dollars to the state.
$ 0.50 Surcharge Increase
This $.50 per bottle reduction for the small craft distiller is much harder to absorb from a business standpoint that it will be for the larger national brands. This will force many in the Oregon distilling industry to cut costs in a variety of ways and become less economically viable.
Find Your Representative
Whether House or Senate, you can search for your Oregon representative by city, zip code, or current location.
