The Movement to Merge Parts of Oregon Into ‘Greater Idaho’ Just Took Another Step Closer to Becoming a Reality

As the Gateway pundit has previously reported, the concept of Greater Idaho is an effort by some parts of the state of Oregon to secede and become part of the state of Idaho.

The reason people are pushing for this is because the eastern part of Oregon is conservative and the folks who live there are tired of having to live under progressive rule from people in the western part of the state and the far left city of Portland.

The movement has made slow progress with mostly small moves, but it just took a bigger step towards becoming real.

The New York Post reported:

Oregon effort to shift border, join conservative Idaho gains momentum with GOP bill

Over the past several years, the Greater Idaho movement has tried to create the conditions needed for about 13 counties to join the conservative Gem State next door.

Greater Idaho began putting such measures up for votes in various counties in 2020 and this month saw Republican lawmakers file a bill in the state legislature that would create a task force to study “moving” the border.

State Rep. Mark Owens, R-Malheur, put forward HB 3844, a measure that creates and directs a task force to document the impacts of relocating the Idaho border and requires a report be presented to lawmakers in Salem…

Greater Idaho president Mike McCarter said in a statement: “We are encouraged to see the representatives of Eastern Oregon coming together to advocate for their voters by bringing these bills to the Legislature. The people of Eastern Oregon have made clear they want to explore moving the border and joining Idaho.

This map clearly shows the counties that have voted in favor of this in red.

Conservatives across the US are voting to separate from Democrat-governance, yet those governments are refusing to let us go. Thanks to Fox news for highlighting the injustice. When people vote to change their governance and it’s denied, it’s authoritarianism, not democracy. https://t.co/qDvnLTo3oO

There are lots of reasons why people on the left don’t want this to happen, but one of the main ones is the precedent it would set. If this was successful, you better believe other states would follow by making similar moves.
