- ➤ Lawmakers in Salem are meeting in a special session to consider a bill that would double the transit payroll tax from 0.1% to 0.2% starting Jan. 1, 2026—while a sunset provision would roll the tax back to 0.1% on Jan. 1, 2028 unless the legislature acts otherwise. This change aims to help fund transit agencies and prevent service cuts and layoffs. KGW
