OBRA -
Today I've seen a vast number of letters against this proposed legislation
from outraged Oregonians. Thanks to everyone who wrote/called their
legislatures to tell them that riding with kids is not a dangerous
activity.
Just to give an update -

Make sure to send Rep. Bailey a little thank you for sweeping in a saving
the day .
Further - here is the BTA's strategy on the situation -

Keep paying attention as it is sure to be a lively legislative session.
Cheers,
Susan
