About this listen
In this episode of Oregon D.O.G.E., lawmakers dig into one of Oregon’s most powerful and controversial agencies: the Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ).
Senator Daniel Bonham, Rep. Greg Smith, and Senator David Brock Smith walk through:
- DEQ’s $800M+ budget, with 42% based on regulatory fees
- 8,200+ pages of rules, many created without legislative approval
- A federal DEI lawsuit that could cost Oregon millions
- How DEQ’s policies drive up energy, construction, and consumer costs
- Oregon’s Climate Protection Program, and the nonprofit funneling climate money with ties to political activism
Whether it’s zero-emission mandates, shrinking business incentives, or runaway bureaucracy, lawmakers ask: Who’s holding DEQ accountable?
