A Division of the Bureau of Bureau Management
Affordability Isn’t Free.
The mission of the Cost of Affordability Initiative is to strengthen Oregon by ensuring affordability through sustained public investment, expanded financial support, and policies that support continued investments in affordability.
About the Initiative
Making things affordable requires investment, and investment requires money, which unfortunately makes affordability increasingly expensive. The Initiative addresses this challenge through subsidies, incentives, assistance programs, administrative support, and continued public investment designed to reduce the cost of things that continue to cost more. And as the cost of affordability rises, we remain committed to investing whatever is necessary to keep affordability affordable.
In Their Words
The Cost of Affordability Initiative is fictional.
The Cost of Affordability Initiative welcomes contributions of any size — the bigger the better, given what things cost.
Request ongoing updates from the Cost of Affordability Initiative and the rest of the Bureau. Notification volume may increase over time. That’s kind of the point.





More to Come
The Cost of Affordability Initiative is one of several offices in the Bureau of Bureau Management series. Visit the Bureau homepage for the latest.
Despite how real this may feel — especially if you’ve dealt with government recently — the Cost of Affordability Initiative and the Bureau of Bureau Management are satirical works of fiction and are not actual government agencies. Paid for by Angela for Oregon.
