- Ben Cannon is an American teacher and politician from Oregon. He was elected in 2006 to the Oregon House of Representatives, representing the state's 46th District, which covers portions of southeast and northeast Portland. He is unopposed for re-election in 2008. Cannon was educated at Washington University in St. Louis, Missouri, where he edited the campus newspaper and co-authored Walking Historic Downtown St. Louis (2000). He won a Rhodes Scholarship to Oxford University in 1999, and went to Corpus Christi College, Oxford. There he studied Philosophy, Politics, and Economics before taking a graduate degree in Comparative and International Education. Cannon returned to Oregon to become a middle school teacher at the Arbor School of Arts and Sciences in Tualatin, where he still teaches. Cannon was the main sponsor for House Bill 2461 which was not able to get out of committee by the end of the June 2009 session due to opposition. It called for a 1900% increase in the Oregon Beer Tax which would have made it the highest increase on brewers in American History. It received national attention and was even documented in the Wall Street Journal. The bill had come under fire from supporters of an industry that in Oregon provides 5200 direct jobs and an estimated 10,000 indirect jobs.
