The program opens discussions around gun laws, gun disposal and gun safety. Speakers will be Ashland Police Chief Tighe O’Meara and Jackson County Sheriff Nate Sickler. In November 2022, Oregon voters narrowly passed Measure 114, a groundbreaking gun control law that has never taken effect. Mired in series of court challenges, it may be years before the law’s fate is settled. But there is plenty to talk about before the litigation runs its course. Part of the “Big Ideas” program series, it is presented by the American Association of University Women (AAUW) Ashland Branch and Jackson County Library Services.
