Relating to ballot titles.
HB 3452 shifts the responsibility for drafting official ballot titles for Oregon state initiatives and referendums from the Attorney General to the Legislative Counsel. This change directly affects the Legislative Counsel's office, which will now prepare and certify the concise titles summarizing proposed measures. The bill amends several Oregon Revised Statutes to update references from the Attorney General to the Legislative Counsel in procedures governing ballot titles. This is a procedural change to the state's ballot measure process, not a substantive policy shift.
