In response to Governor Brown’s outdoor mask mandate, Citizens for Greater Idaho issued a press release saying “Idaho’s state lockdown lasted a few weeks while the population was panicked and little was known about COVID; Oregon’s state lockdown is 17 months old. We call on patriots to help us move the Oregon/Idaho border to save eastern and southern Oregon from tyranny. We commend sheriffs in these areas who refuse to participate in such mandates, such as Union County Sheriff Cody Bowen.
This is the site of both Citizens for Greater Idaho and Move Oregon’s Border, the two organizations that created and serve the “greater Idaho” movement. We promote the idea of creating a greater (bigger & stronger) Idaho so that conservative counties can become a part of a red state. We started from rural Oregon, but our movement now includes progressives and conservatives of northwestern Oregon who welcome a smaller Oregon, as well as Idahoans, Californians, and Washingtonians.
