Animal Welfare
Protect animals. Oppose IP28 overreach.
As a veterinarian with animal welfare experience, Dr. Kahl supports strong cruelty laws and responsible animal care. She opposes IP28 because it goes beyond animal welfare and could threaten fishing, hunting, farming, ranching, wildlife management, pest control, and research.
Real Welfare
Animal welfare should mean stopping cruelty, neglect, and abuse with clear laws that can be fairly enforced.
Oppose IP28
Dr. Kahl opposes IP28 because it goes beyond companion animals and creates risks for lawful Oregon livelihoods.
Practical Balance
Oregon can protect animals while respecting farmers, ranchers, hunters, anglers, veterinarians, and local communities.
