Certified ballot title language challenged

 

After carefully reviewing the certified ballot title language, Protect Oregon Driver Licenses has filed a challenge to the summary text. This challenge will ensure that the summary is accurate, does not mislead voters, and is faithful to the language of SB 833.

 

SB 833 has one purpose--to permit unlawfully present aliens to obtain driver licenses. However, the summary misstates the effect of the SB 833 by focusing on prohibitions to the use of the driver card found nowhere in the text of the law.

 

Protect Oregon Driver Licenses is asking the Supreme Court to direct the Attorney General to rewrite the Summary so that only the effect of SB 833 is in the Summary, as opposed to negative inferences the Attorney General may have taken from other laws.
