Oregon Almost Banned Hunting And Fishing Kotek Mocks Amendment As Theater

from News For Reasonable People · host Sean Reynolds

Oregon came dangerously close to outlawing hunting, fishing, trapping, rodeo, and livestock operations statewide. Initiative Petition 28 failed to gather enough signatures — but the fact it got as far as it did exposed how far left the state's political class has drifted from the rural communities that built it.Republican gubernatorial candidate Christine Drazen is done playing defense. She's proposing a constitutional amendment to permanently enshrine the right to hunt, fish, trap, and raise livestock in Oregon law. Governor Tina Kotek's response? "Political theater" — no acknowledgment of the near-miss that made the fight necessary in the first place.Sean also covers Daimler/Freightliner moving its truck plant out of Portland, Seattle's LGBTQ funding debate, and why Amazon's Jumpstart payroll tax is quietly making the city uncompetitive for the businesses it needs most.Subscribe to @reasonablenews for daily commentary on Pacific Northwest politics, urban policy, and the stories the mainstream press buries.#NFRP #Oregon #TinaKotekGO PREMIUM WITH REASONABLE+ FOR UNCENSORED ACCESS 🌟https://ReasonableTV.com/🛍️ MERCH - https://Store.ReasonableTV.com/💬 JOIN our FREE Discord Community!
