Oregon Political Tax Credit

Your contribution can make a difference in our campaign … and it doesn’t have to cost you anything.

If you file an Oregon tax return, you may be eligible* for the Oregon Political Tax Credit which allows you to make a contribution of up to $100 as a married couple filing jointly, or up to $50 as an individual, to committees like ours and receive every dollar of it back when you file your income tax return next year.

This is not a deduction. It is a tax credit. That means that if you owe money to the state at the end of the year, you will owe up to $100 less. If you are due a refund, your refund will be that much more. It’s as close to a cost-free contribution as one can get!

Through our tax system, the state of Oregon gives each tax-paying Oregonian a $50 gift. But you can’t keep it. You either pay it back in state taxes—or donate it to a qualified political committee registered in the State of Oregon.
