SALEM — Oregon
Secretary of State Den-
nis Richardson says he
will remain in office after
being diagnosed with brain
cancer.
Richardson announced
the diagnosis Wednesday
in a statement. Richardson
said he was optimistic, and
that the discovery, made in
May, had caught the dis-
ease early.
In a short video posted
on social media, Richard-
son, who is 68, emphasized
that he would continue in
his official capacity, and
would be working a full
schedule.
“I am going to con-
tinue, I absolutely will ful-
fill my responsibilities,”
Richardson said. “Every-

PORTLAND — A pro-
posed ballot measure that
would restrict ownership of
assault weapons and large-ca-
pacity magazines wound up
in the Oregon Supreme Court
after a gun rights proponent
on Wednesday petitioned for a
review of the ballot title, say-
ing it was politically charged
and deceptive.
The state’s high court
received the review one day
before the deadline, said Phil-
lip Lemman of the Oregon
Judicial Department. The
topic has become incendiary
amid a flood of school shoot-
ings, many of them carried out
with AR-15 semi-automatic
assault rifles.
Backers of the statewide
initiative told a news confer-
ence in a church in Portland
they are ready to launch a
statewide campaign to gather
enough signatures to put the
measure on the November
ballot as soon as the court fin-
ishes its deliberations.
“We want to move for-
ward and give Oregonians the
chance to vote,” said Pastor
Mark Knutson of the Augus-
tana Lutheran Church, one
of the three chief petitioners.
“We are ready. As an organi-
zation we are building tremen-
dous capacity throughout the
state to get the 88,000 signa-
tures that are required in the
time that we are given, by July
6.”
The campaigners are
counting on the participation
of youth, who protested across
the nation to demand stricter
gun laws, to help gather sig-
natures, and on places of

Pastor Mark Knutson of the Augustana Lutheran Church speaks at a news con-
ference in Portland on Wednesday about a proposed ballot measure that would
restrict ownership of assault weapons and large-capacity magazines. The matter
wound up in the Oregon Supreme Court after a gun-rights proponent on Wednes-
day petitioned for a review of the ballot title, saying it was politically charged and
deceptive.
worship.
In his request to the
Supreme Court for a review,
gun rights advocate Roger
Beyer said the ballot language
“uses the politically charged
and emotionally laden words,
‘assault weapons,’ and ‘large
capacity magazines.’ The
description is also misleading,
argumentative, and deceptive
because it implies the measure
applies only to a limited and
belligerent group of ‘assault
weapons’ gun owners.”
The proposed measure,
known as Initiative Petition
43, would go before voters
in the November election if
enough verified signatures are
collected in time. If on the bal-
lot, a “yes” vote would require
registration with the Oregon
State Police of “assault weap-
ons,” defined to include cer-

wrote in his petition with the
Supreme Court.
In the press conference in
Knutson’s church, Knutson
joined with a rabbi and a Mus-
lim imam to announce that
from Friday, June 29 through
Sunday, July 1, a signa-
ture-gathering campaign will
be launched at churches, syn-
agogues and mosques around
the state — if the Supreme
Court has finished assessing
the request for review.
State law says the court’s
review “shall be conducted
expeditiously” so the signa-
tures can be collected.
The Supreme Court can
either approve the certified
ballot title as-is, rewrite it or
order the attorney general to
make changes.
