week in the slate Legislature
eventually passes
Introduced by Rep |im Whit
ty, a House Democrat from
Coos County, the bill would
guard against what some legis
lators see as disproportionate
political power resting in the
more populated areas ol the
state
"I want to put some democ
racy back in our citizen initia
tive process," Whitty said
"It's too easy these days for
some well-funded special inter
est groups to hire an army of
signature gatherers, set them
loose in the Portland area, and
get anything on a statewide bal
lot."

"The system is out of con

when we re iai ing cuts for the
developmentally disabled and
other essential services, it's uil
ai i eptable that legislators can't
even refuse a pay increase "

the family to l>e supported by social programs,"
Siel said "The people as a whole have to pay for
it whether it !>e through traffic accident injuries
and losses or through treatment and social pro

Handwerger said that his group >s not necessar
