Rally to Restore Driver’s License Access to ALL Oregonians

Salem, Ore.-- Last Friday, after several days of phone calls, faxes, visits, and negotiations, CAUSA was notified that the Oregon State Senate will hold a legislative hearing on Oregon's bipartisan Driver’s License Access Restoration Act (Senate Bill 845).

The hearing is scheduled for the afternoon on Monday, April 18th in the Senate Transportation Committee. We will hold a rally on the front steps of the Oregon State Capitol starting at 4:00pm. It is very important that supporters of Senate Bill 845 attend the rally and hearing to send a message to the members of the Senate Transportation Committee that our communities value public safety and want ALL Oregonians to have access to Driver’s Licenses
