Oregon Progressive Party Launches Initiative to GET BIG MONEY OUT OF OREGON POLITICS
The Oregon Progressive Party has begun actively collecting signatures on a new statewide initiative petition (IP 77). This petition would:
- allow Oregon to join the ranks of 46 other states with limits on money in the political process, and
- ensure that the actual sources of that money are disclosed to the public.
Oregon is the only state whose constitution has been interpreted to prohibit limits on contributions and expenditures to influence the outcome of elections, be they candidate elections or initiatives/referenda. As a result, Oregon elections are among the most expensive in the nation. The Oregonian reports that only New Jersey campaigns are more expensive on a per capita basis.
The chief petitioners are:
- Liz Trojan, State Council, Oregon Progressive Party
- Rob Harris, IPO Caucus, Independent Party of Oregon
- Seth Woolley, Member, Coordinating Committee, Pacific Green Party
We Need Your Help
We need to collect 1,000 valid Oregon voter signatures in order to get a ballot title for the initiative. You can help us with this effort. Please contact David e. Delk, Co-Chair of the Oregon Progressive Party, for instructions and petition sheets. David can be contacted at [email protected] or 503.232.5495.
How the Petition Reads
It is a model of simplicity. It reads:
Be it enacted by the People of the State of Oregon, there is added an Article II, Section 25, of the Constitution of Oregon:
Oregon laws consistent with the freedom of speech guarantee of the United States Constitution may:
1. limit contributions and expenditures (including transfers of money or resources) to influence the outcome of any election; and
2. require disclosure of the true sources and amounts of such contributions or expenditures (a)to the public and (b) in the communications they fund.
