Oregon Anti-Hunting Ballot Initiative: Earlier this month Delta’s policy team submitted an official comment letter to the Oregon Secretary of State expressing our deep concerns with the language of Proposed Initiative Petition 28(IP28)—a citizen-led effort to ban all hunting and fishing in the state of Oregon through a ballot initiative. Our letter made it clear that if IP28 were to pass, it would outlaw all hunting and fishing in the state of Oregon. In fact, it would make it illegal to cause any harm to an animal, which would have effects on agriculture and pest control industries as well. The proponents of this effort have not been accurately or honestly capturing the full weight this ballot proposal will bring, and we have requested that the Secretary of State makes updates to the ballot language to reflect this.
