Case 2

Fueled by angst over Enron, political activists in Multnomah County invoked Oregon’s initiative process in an attempt to seize the assets of several electric utilities via eminent domain. Jason advised his company’s campaign team, conducted an extensive feasibility study, and submitted public testimony to the Oregon Office of Energy opposing the initiative.

The company defeated the threat by a wide margin, preserving $100M+ in revenue and protecting the company’s headquarters.
