West Coast, Messed Coast™ — Oregon Is a Step Closer to Outlawing Hunting and Gathering
Oregon is moving closer to a controversial initiative that would outlaw hunting and gathering. The proposed measure, known as the 'Peace Act,' has gathered enough signatures to be placed on the November ballot.

- ▪The initiative aims to remove legal exemptions for hunting, fishing, trapping, and farming under animal abuse statutes.
- ▪It would criminalize common practices involving animals, including the use of mousetraps and breeding practices.
- ▪The measure has crossed the signature threshold required for it to be verified and placed on the ballot.
