If you filed a comment on the proposed ballot title for IP43 a few days ago, you now have standing to appeal the revised ballot title to the Oregon Supreme Court. I'm told that this will further delay signature gathering until the Oregon Supreme Court can deal with the appeals. The form for filing such an appeal was provided to me by OFF:

Be aware that the filing fee involved appears to be $391 and that there is a filing deadline of just a few days from the time a final ballot title is issued (It was issued yesterday). Perhaps a bunch of us would like to contribute toward the $391 filing fee, and one of us with standing could file an appeal. I cannot do it. I will be completely out of touch for 10 days starting this afternoon. If somebody wants to take this on you might want to contact Kevin Starrett at OFF for some pointers.
