New Hound Initiative in Oregon
Posted: Wed Jun 29, 2011 3:30 pm
We have another initiative we are working on to get hounds legalized for cougars.

It is #19 at the bottom of the page.
The way the process works...
We wrote an initiative and turned it into the Sec. of State.
SOS office gives it back to us in their format and we collect 1000 valid signatures.
We turn in the signatures and the SOS proposes a title and summary. This is where we are with this and we will get the summary by Friday, July 1.
When that comes out it becomes public and all concerned parties argue for or against the title and summary that will be determined by the office of the SOS and the Attorney General. The way has gone down in the past we send in our arguments and the HSUS sends in theirs.
Once the arguments are read and the final summary and title come out we can start collecting the 100k (or so) signatures we need.
Stay tuned... check that link on Friday and write to the SOS to state your opinion of her work.
