Proposed bill creating addiction recovery fund amended to create Task Force on Substance Use     PORTLAND, OR (KPTV) A bill that proposed a significant tax increase on wine products and beer manufacturers is now being amended to include all players in creating legislation to address funding for addiction services. The Addiction Crisis Recovery Act would have raised taxes on beer and wine producers to fund addiction recovery services. “The only way to tax beer and wine to bring the retail price up 20% with the goal of then reducing harmful consumption by 10% was to put it at the manufacturer level,” Mike Marshall, executive director for Oregon Recovers, said.
