Yes, Oregon DID turn out specimens of stilbite in the past - from two localities in particular: Goble, and Dallas (Polk County). This one is just spectacular - not only for the quality of its crystals, but for its prodigious size. The crystals are a beautiful light creamy pink, showing lamellar bowtie form. They are densely inter-grown, and in fact, there is only a tiny amount of matrix on the back - this is essentially an amalgam of crystals. An exceptional U.S. specimen!
