Cornelius first target for OCA
CORNELIUS (AP) — This
rural town west of Portland
will bo the site of the first skir
mish in the Oregon Citizens
Alliance's latest anti-gay rights
effort.
Ballots were mailed Thursday lor Measure H
5. one of eight (X'A measures on the ballot in Ore
gon communities so far this year The Cornelius
ballots will be counted May 18.
"The CX-A is going after the state a piece at a
time." said Liz Kaufman, executive director of Save
Our Communities, a new statewide political action
committee formed to oppose the local measures
Kaufman's group has been aiding opponents of
the Cornelius measure, who canvassed most house
holds with a simple message This is bad for our
community, and it will c ost us money we don't have
to spare.
But the CX1A counts Cornelius Mayor Neal Knight
among its supporters. He and other local backers
have been doing their own door-to-door organiz
ing. handing out leaflets and conduc ting rallies.
"It's obvious there's a homosexual agenda out
there." Knight said "We need to slop it Ixsfore it
gets out of control."
When the (X)A announced last ianuary that it
would trv to pul measures on the ballot in 32 Ore
gon communities, Knight and Brenda Sounders, a
Cornelius homemaker, wondered why their town
wasn't on the list.
Saunders, who became the c hief petitioner for
the Cornelius measure, contacted the (X1A and
began circulating petitions
On the other side of the issue is Sister Barbara
Raymond, a Catholic nun who helped organize Cor
nelius Citizens for Human Dignity.
Raymond's group is hitting hard on Cornelius’
role as standard-bearer If the measure passes, the
group says. Cornelius would lie the first to lie sued
and would have to take the lead in defending the
measure
The CXiA says its initiative will pass constitu
tional muster. It is a toned-down version of Mea
sure 9, the statewide initiative that failed last fall.
Measure 9 would have defined homosexuality as
abnormal and perverse and required state and local
governments to discourage it.
TheCXiA now is focusing on language that would
liar spec ific anti-discrimination protections for gays
and lesbians.
The new measure also prohibits c ities and coun
ties from spending money to "promote homosexu
ality or express approval of homosexual behavior.”
The OCA's strategy has met with mixed success.
The measure will be on the June 29 ballot in five
counties and at least one city. Another county and
one city will vote Sept 21. and the OCA is trying
for September or later elections in the remaining
communities.
However, the (XiA failed to muster enough sig
natures to make the ballot in half of the first eight
cities it aimed for: Horiniston, Pendleton. Prineville
and Medford
Washington changes salmon season
GRANTS PASS (AP) — The
Clinton administration juggled
Pacific Ocean salmon seasons
Thursday, giving more fish to the
Yurok Indians on California's Kla
math River and taking some away
from commercial and recreation
al fishermen
Commerce Secretary Ron
Brown and Interior Secrotary
Bruce Bobbin agreed to change
key pieces of the seasons that
were worked out by the Pacific
Fishery Management Council.
"These management measures
reflect the extremely high prior
ity that Secretary Babbitt and 1
place on conserving the Klamuth
River chinook salmon," Brown
said from Washington. "Bwause
these stocks of salmon arc* severe
ly depressed, we must carefully
manage them to ensure that there
are sufficient population num
bers for the future."
Pacific Ocean salmon seasons
are set to begin Saturday.
