More Is Progress.
The mission of the Department of More is to strengthen Oregon through the continued growth of programs, resources, public capacity, and strategic investments that support the long-term expansion of opportunities for future growth.
About the Department
Because every problem deserves a program, and every program deserves a larger program. The Department of More is committed to expanding Oregon’s capacity to expand, ensuring that today’s investments create tomorrow’s opportunities for additional investment. Because when results are difficult to measure, there’s always one reliable sign of progress: more.
In Their Words
“Oregon voters rejected our $4.3 billion gas tax. Message received: they wanted more. So after the election, we're thinking, how about $8 billion?”
— Deputy Undersecretary Reginald P. Ottersby, Oregon Department of Infrastructure Readiness“The new I-5 bridge just went from seven billion to fourteen billion. Some call that a cost overrun. We call it the project doubling in importance.”
— Commissioner Marlene Fussbudget, Office of Permit Oversight“Vehicle title fees just went from seventy seven dollars to two hundred sixteen. That's not a fee increase. That's the state tripling how much it believes in you.”
— Director Chadwick Vellingham III, Bureau of Regulatory Assurance“Oregon deserves better than this. Forty years of one-party rule, and it shows. Housing out of reach. Prices keep climbing. Our kids are falling behind in school. And the answer is always the same: more spending, more programs, more task forces. Enough with more. How about better? Let’s fix this.”
Read the Press ReleaseThe Department of More welcomes contributions of any size, in the same spirit with which it welcomes budgets of any size: gratefully, and with room for more.
Request ongoing updates from the Department of More and the rest of the Bureau. Notification volume may increase over time. That’s kind of the point.
More to Come

Despite how real this may feel — especially if you’ve dealt with government recently — the Department of More and the Bureau of Bureau Management are satirical works of fiction and are not actual government agencies. Paid for by Angela for Oregon.
