Opponents of measure 7 say it's a radical and deceptive scheme to dismantle Oregon's environmental and land-use legacy.
"Measure 7 would require local governments and the state to pay property owners whenever any regulation restricts the use of private property in virtually any way. The measure's authors insist this is about "fairness," as if it's fair to require Oregonians to pay corporations and other landowners to comply with air and water pollution laws, or rules that preserve farmland and forests, or even pay them for following the law that guarantees public access to Oregon beaches. "
