Oregon's Animal Slaughter Ban Faces Hurdle | Portland News
Description
Oregon’s bold PEACE Act, aiming to ban all commercial animal slaughter, fishing, and hunting, hit a major snag after its first signature batch failed to meet validity thresholds. With over 142,000 signatures submitted, only 117,000 valid ones were needed — but the sample didn’t cut it. Supporters, driven by animal welfare, face off against farming groups warning of economic chaos and even pest control collapse. A second, larger signature round is now under review — and if that fails, the measure won’t make it to the November ballot. The fate of this sweeping proposal hangs in the balance.
