Marijuana Business Banned in Over Half of Oregon
Thanks to the infamous West Idaho Compromise, licensed cultivation, processing, distribution, and retailing of marijuana – also known as marijuana businesses – are banned in 52.7 percent of the state of Oregon.
Bans on marijuana licensees have been instituted in Baker, Crook, Harney, Klamath, Malheur, Morrow, Umatilla, Union, and Wheeler counties. These counties’ bans are immediate and not subject to a vote of the people. The legislature’s West Idaho Compromise allows these counties and any others that voted against legalization with more than 55 percent of the vote to ignore the will of the people, despite the statewide Measure 91 vote that said the people should decide all marijuana business bans.
License bans are also in effect in Douglas, Jefferson, Linn, and Marion counties. There the people will have a chance to weigh in on the decision to ban.
