in the Oregon Senate. Details here (http://bikeportland.org/2007/06/24/vehicular-homicide-bill-introduced-in-salem/). If you support it, act quickly. We've only got one more week until the legislative session ends! :eek:

I will contact Peter Buckley's office (or maybe the man himself!) and tell them I want it voted for. Thanks for the heads up!

This was posted in the "Sadness in the City" thread but I think it is worth repeating here.

I used this link for contacting my representatives and they have responded.

Talked with the Widow of Tim Odonell last night and she is working on them now too. Support for this is vary necessary and can be ground breaking for the rest of the union.
Keep your raceface pointed forward.
