Oregon gun owners appeal to state Supreme Court to review gun control Measure 114
- Two Harney County gun owners, backed by Gun Owners of America, petitioned the Oregon Supreme Court to review Measure 114.
- Oregon lawmakers are increasing efforts to restrict gun rights after voters approved Measure 114 in November 2022.
- Measure 114 mandates a permit to purchase a gun and limits magazine capacity to ten rounds, facing legal challenges.
- The petitioners' attorney, Tony L. Aiello Jr., argued the permit requirement grants the government power over a constitutional right; he stated, "The Court has never been tasked with considering restrictions as heavy-handed as requiring that all Oregonians receive government permission before acquiring a firearm."
- The Oregon Supreme Court has the option to review the case, accept briefs, or uphold the lower court's ruling on Measure 114.
