"The Greater Idaho movement" :data-laughing:

The Greater Idaho movement seeks to redraw state boundaries so rural Oregon can join Idaho.
Idaho's House voted in favor of exploring the move after 11 Oregon counties did the same.
Moving the state boundary would require the approval of Oregon, Idaho, and the U.S. Congress.
The Greater Idaho movement — a conservative effort to have eastern Oregon secede from the blue state and join Idaho — got a major nod of support last week from lawmakers in the red state.
uhh sweaty because this is a republic and not a democracy?? why should sacramento have any say on the counties it pays for if it isn't a mom and pop landlord company?
