Greater Idaho movement
Initiative to transfer counties in eastern Oregon to Idaho / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Greater Idaho movement is a conservative effort in the United States for counties east of the Oregon Cascades,[1] to secede from the state of Oregon and join Idaho.[2][3][4] If approved locally by voters via ballot measures, it would need approval from the state legislatures of both Oregon and Idaho, as well as the federal Congress.[5][6]

As of July 2024, thirteen counties in Oregon had approved ballot measures in favor of Greater Idaho: Baker, Crook, Grant, Harney, Jefferson, Klamath, Lake, Malheur, Morrow, Sherman, Union, Wallowa, and Wheeler.[7][8]
