Oregon's "Peace Act"

[JABIII]

People for the Elimination of Animal Cruelty Exemptions
(PEACE) Act

Initiative Petition 28 (IP28), formally titled People for the Elimination of Animal Cruelty Exemptions (PEACE) Act, is a proposed ballot initiative filed with the state of Oregon for the November 2026 general election.

If enacted, IP28 would extend the legal protections that keep our companion animals safe to animals currently on farms, in research labs, and in the wild—which would then protect those animals from slaughter, hunting, fishing, and experimentation. Animal abuse in Oregon is already defined as the intentional, knowing, and reckless injury of an animal. IP28 doesn't change that definition, it simply changes who is protected under that definition. IP28 would also expand protections against animal sexual assault by classifying both the masturbation and impregnation of animals as sexual assault even when done for agricultural purposes (under current state law, the same actions would only count as sexual assault if done for the human being's sexual gratification).

We believe it is possible to meet all of our needs as human beings while simultaneously meeting the needs of the animals we inhabit this state with. Using the killing of animals as a strategy to meet our needs is a choice, and our campaign wants to propose making a different one. Whether that looks like greater investment in plant agriculture, utilizing non-lethal wildlife management practices, or implementing non-animal methods for research, many alternative strategies already exist to choose from.

Before it gets to the ballot, we need to collect 117,173 signatures from registered voters in the state of Oregon. If you want to help, find out how you can volunteer to collect signatures or how you can donate to the campaign. You can read the full text of IP28 here.

It is indeed the very definition of irony and hypocrisy that the very people supporting this Peace one shit would also support abortions to he person and not blink if asked and answered same. They would fail completely to be able to see the issue and swear and want to fight you that it’s not the same thing. ALSO why Liberalism is the very definition of an emotional disorder. Logic is never involved in their decision making process.
