We absolutely need your help to get the word out on fighting this terrible ballot measure. Our property rights are under attack and we need your help. Election day is rapidly approaching and the supporters of Measure 2 want to restrict what you can and cannot do on your own property. Your contribution will help reach thousands of other North Dakotans who need to know that their property rights are under attack.

Key Messages in the Fight to Protect Your Property Rights

  • Measure 2 infringes upon a landowner’s right to use their land as they see fit.
  • Measure 2, if passed, will criminalize game farms and limit the choices hunters presently enjoy.
  • Measure 2 limits the choice that hunters currently have. Those who do not agree with game preserves have a choice not to use them.
  • Measure 2 is badly written and will have severe consequences for North Dakota agriculture and hunting rights.
  • Measure 2 is so poorly written that alternative and diversified livestock ranchers won’t be able to process their animals for commercial sale in restaurants and grocery stores or even for personal consumption.
  • This ban will lead to even more restrictions on the harvesting of any privately-owned livestock – whether elk, deer or bison or domestic livestock such as cattle and hogs.
  • The North Dakota State Board of Animal Health tightly and sensibly regulates the game farm industry.
  • Game preserves support tourism and brings in out-of-state money into North Dakota.
  • Animal rights extremists are starting battles like Measure 2 across the U.S. in order to further their efforts to ban all hunting, fishing and animal farming.
  • Measure 2 is the first step down a path that will eventually lead to controls or bans on future forms of hunting, including bow hunting, some forms of bird hunting, even trapping.
