The Oregon Department of
Justice has closed a criminal
investigation into two petition-
ers who were accused of giving
false information to persuade
voters to sign a petition to
repeal the state sanctuary law.
The complaint has been
referred back to the Oregon
Secretary of State’s Elections
Division.
“In sum, our investigation
did not reveal sufficient evi-
dence that either circulator
violated (Oregon Revised Stat-
ute) 260.555, which prohibits,
among other things, making a
false statement regarding the
contents, meaning or effect of
a petition,” wrote the depart-
ment’s chief criminal coun-
sel Michael J. Slauson in a
Wednesday letter to Oregon
Elections Director Steve Trout.
Initiative Petition 22 has
since qualified for the ballot
as Measure 105, Stop Oregon
Sanctuaries.
The measure would repeal
the more than 30-year law that
prohibits use of state and local
resources to enforce federal
immigration law, when a per-
son’s only crime is being in
the country illegally.
