 Oregon Bill pays homeless $1,000 per month. Oregon is considering giving homeless and low-income people $1,000 a month in universal basic income. Oregon lawmakers are debating a bill to create a Department of Human Services People's Housing Support Fund demonstration program. Oregon's UBI handout bill is the latest from Blue States. Bill tracked 50 states that the bill would give 12 monthly payments of $1,000 to those who are experiencing homelessness, are at risk of homelessness, are substantially rent burdened or earn at or below 60% of area median income. The law would mandate a research on who receives the money by race, veteran status, and domestic violence risk. The bill expires in 2026. Supporters believe winners will use $1,000 for rent and other living expenses. Such discretion could backfire and beneficiaries use the money for drink or drugs.
