In 2009, Oregon Senate Bill 311 increased state agency liability caps from $500,000 to $3.2 million, and the cap will increase to $4 million by 2015.

The tripling of insurance rates may cause the annual Labor Day Civil War reenactment to be canceled in future years. [Daily Astorian via R.L.; earlier]
