The bill’s sponsor is one of those uniquely Eugene, Oregon politicians. An otherwise intelligent and thoughtful human being who lives in the same city as where Nike was born as a company who also happens to be a complete whack job when it comes to animals from other countries who aren’t under jurisdiction of the local animal shelter (which is still a kill shelter).
