Since 1987, Oregon Revised Statute 181A.820 has kept Oregon's state and local law-enforcement agencies from offering their fullest cooperation to the U.S. authorities charged with identifying and detaining illegal aliens. In doing so, the law has effectively rendered Oregon a "sanctuary" state for foreigners here illegally.

Activists affiliated with Oregonians for Immigration Reform have filed Initiative Petition 22 with the Oregon Secretary of State's Elections Division. It has been accepted, and will place a measure onto the November 2018 statewide ballot that will give Oregonians the chance to repeal ORS 181A.820. It is called Ballot Measure 105.

Illegal aliens can and do harm the American citizens to whom Oregon owes its foremost responsibility. For this reason, enforcement of U.S. immigration law is central to the duties of Oregon's police departments and sheriff's offices. Vote YES on Ballot Measure 105 to repeal ORS 181A.820 -- and to free Oregon law enforcement to better protect Oregonians from criminal aliens.
