Sign the Petition, Get signatures
Help us get county ballot initiatives on the ballot! Although we’re allowed to collect signatures for 24 months, we need to get some counties on the ballot by February 17, 2021 to give our movement momentum. That deadline is for the May 18, 2021 election. Sign a petition and help us collect signatures here.
Provide a signing location
Find an office or business location in your county that would be willing to be a location where people can pick up and drop off our petitions. If you find one, email us and we will send you some petitions to give to them.
Contact your County
Oregonians: contact your county commissioners if you live in an orange or green county on the map below. Ask them to put an advisory question on the county ballot to give voters a voice on whether the border should be moved. They need to act in January or February to meet the deadline for the May 2021 ballot. For more on this, click here.
Donate and Wear the Message
Donations help us make this idea more popular through advertising, lawn signs, banners, etc. We also need seed money to fund a study of the economics of moving the border.
You can get merchandise in return for donations! Wear the merchandise to spread the message! Stay tuned
Letter to the editor
Write a letter to the editor of as many newspapers as you can find. These can reach many people. Then post it on social media.
Contact state legislators
It’s not too early to contact your state legislators.
Idahoans, we met with a dozen Idaho legislators and they said they weren’t sure if Idahoans are ready yet for their government to spend money on a study of the economics and feasibility of moving the border. Let them know your opinion. If you want to contact the whole state, their contact info is here for senators and here for representatives.
In Oregon, we need to build a coalition of legislators on BOTH sides of the future border, including state leadership, to make a greater Idaho a reality. We hope that Democrats in northwestern Oregon will be happy to say goodbye to “low-income, Trump-voting counties.” Ask your legislator to encourage Democrats who represent northwestern Oregon to do this. Find your legislator’s contact info here. If you want to contact the whole state, their contact info is here for senators and here for representatives.
Washington state legislators are here.
