The Hilarious thing in Oregon is some of the 'marketing' for this new rent control law stressed over and over that rent had grown 25% in Oregon over the last 4 years, so 'something needed to be done'. So they capped at 7% per year.. Someone really, really sucks at math...

Yikes, 31% (1.04^4 - 1) instead of 25%.
