   PER CURIAM

In this ballot title proceeding, petitioner challenges various aspects of the Caption, Question, and Summary of a ballot title for a proposed measure that was certified to the Secretary of State by the Attorney General pursuant to ORS 250.065. Setting out the proposed measure, the Attorney General’s ballot title, and the specific contentions of the petitioner would not benefit bench or bar. We have considered each of the arguments advanced by petitioner. We conclude that the ballot title certified by the Attorney General substantially complies with the requirements of ORS 250.035. ORS 250.085(4).

We certify the following ballot title for the proposed measure to the Secretary of State:
