Oregon senator Jeff Merkley vehemently opposes a plan to have his state’s rural east join conservative Idaho.
Merkley spoke at a town hall meeting held at a neighboring high school about the possibility of moving the Idaho-Oregon boundary. He acknowledged the necessity for Oregon to address internal issues, but he is adamant that the suggested strategy is unlikely to ever materialize.
“There are a whole set of barriers that would make the process very difficult,” Regarding the so-called Greater Idaho movement, which aims to include around 13 Oregon counties, or 63% of the state’s landmass and 9% of its population, within Idaho’s borders, Merkley responded in the negative. “I would not want to see the state carved up. I love every part of it.”

Make Idaho more conservative by supporting the Greater Idaho movement and including eastern Oregon!
Both state legislatures and the US Congress must approve any changes to the border between Idaho and Oregon. Despite skeptics’ reservations, it’s critical to consider this option’s possibilities rather than completely ruling it out.
A proposed resolution that is making its way through the Idaho Legislature would discuss moving the boundary between Idaho and Oregon. The resolution requests official talks between the state legislators without relocating the border. The law was approved by the Idaho House of Representatives earlier this year, but it is unclear if it will pass the Senate. The majority of the Senate, however, is Republican, and they are more accepting of the idea than their Democratic counterparts.
While Idahoans support the notion, eastern Oregon advocates for the state’s boundaries to be expanded. With Wallowa County’s initiative still pending, ballot measures to investigate the move have already been approved in 11 counties. If approved, there will now be 12 counties. Despite their continued disagreement, Oregonians favor and oppose the proposal in about equal proportions, leaving around one-fifth of the population uncertain. Will the boundary be revised?

“While there are vast political differences in our region, Greater Idaho is not the proper remedy for those differences,” Democrat Melissa Wintrow, the minority leader in the Idaho Senate, recently told Fox News Digital. “Our democratic republic depends on level heads coming together to find solutions to the issues that impact our citizens. Dividing state borders to create enclaves of politically like-minded people is the opposite of a healthy America.”
Merkley acknowledges that due to the diversity of the state’s municipalities, the east-west divide in Oregon has to be addressed. He observes that when leftist and rightist politicians trash one another on social media and cable news, this widens the gulf. Elected officials should try to understand all Oregonians and close this gap.
“They amplify divisions,” said Merkley.
Proponents not only stress the significance of values but also draw attention to a recent Claremont Institute research that shows economic gains for Idaho if the state line is changed. The report estimates a $170 million net annual benefit for Idaho’s state government budget.
Critics assert that the disturbingly high Medicaid enrollment rates in Oregon’s sparserly inhabited areas might increase Idaho citizens’ tax burden.
Think of a new state that is the size of Montana but twice as populous. That is what “Greater Idaho” would be, and it may see a 21% rise in population.
