In the pursuit of whatever this is, vegans are one step closer to passing a ballot initiative that would make it illegal to kill an animal for food. If passed by voters, this could ban finishing and hunting, while causing major disruptions for the livestock industry.

According to The Post Millennial:

The proposed initiative, called the People for the Elimination of Animal Cruelty Exemptions (PEACE) Act, makes it a crime of animal abuse in the first degree if the person "intentionally, knowingly, or recklessly" causes the death of an animal. The initiative also includes a provision extending sexual abuse of animals to include artificial insemination used on farm animals.

Per KATU2, supporters of the measure have reached the number of necessary signatures, putting it one step closer to being on the November ballot. The Secretary of State’s Office now has to verify the signatures.

Industry groups have spoken out against the measure, with the Oregon Cattlemen’s Association saying that the PEACE Act "would prohibit processing of animals, in addition to restricting hunting and fishing, under the guise of preventing animal cruelty" and remove "the freedom of choice from every consumer."

While vegans have a way of wording this to deceive people into believing this will protect animals against abuse, what it really does is “criminalize longstanding, lawful, and necessary activities across agriculture, natural resource management, and daily life."

"Most concerning for agriculture, IP 28 would redefine “sexual assault” to include routine breeding practices, potentially applying this classification to livestock, equine operations, and even domestic pets. This would expose farmers, ranchers, veterinarians, breeders, and animal owners to criminal liability for standard, humane practices that are essential to animal health, food production, and genetic management," the Bureau added.

Again, nearly everyone in existence wants to ban animal abuse, especially when it ends with the death of an innocent being; that is not what this bill intends to do. In the pursuit of ensuring everyone and their grandmas are vegan, leftists have come one step closer with implementing a proposed law on the ballot, and it could have major repercussions across a load of different industries. That is not progress; it is leftist authoritarianism at its finest. And this has no place in a free society.
