“Part of it was, we don't want people coming to our state and telling us what to do. Most of the voters finally said we can't educate our kids, and we can't get health care for people. We can't make a college education affordable. People finally said enough was enough.” - Senate President Peter Courtney, D-Salem.
“I think that Oregonians don't want these out-of-state special interest groups coming in and using Oregon as a testing ground for their partisan ideas. I think Oregonians have put their foot down.” - Jeff Green, who led the opposition to ballot Measure 40, which would have divided the state into judicial districts.
