Prozanski faced the possibility of a recall election in 2015 after Oregon Pro-Gun Rights advocates attempted to gather more than 10,000 signatures.^[10] The organizers of the recall effort cited Sen. Prozanski's sponsorship of SB.941 which is the State's background check expansion law. Ultimately the recall effort failed.^[11]
