On May 23, 2018 the Oregon Attorney General (who actively campaigns for gun control) certified the ballot title for Initiative Petition 43.

Initial Ballot Title: Criminalizes possession or transfer of “assault weapons” (defined) or “large capacity magazines” (defined), with exceptions

Certified: Prohibits “assault weapons” (defined), “large capacity magazines” (defined), unless registered with state police. Criminal penalties

Despite a record setting number of comments and legal precedent that overwhelmingly object to the deceptive and politically charged ballot title, the AG has decided politics are more important than her legal duty.

As a result, the Oregon Outdoor Council legal team filed an appeal to the Oregon Supreme Court to review the ballot title for IP 43.
