Help us pass the healthy schools act
The Healthy School Bus Bill (HB 2795) has passed out of the Senate Environment and Natural Resources committee! The vote was close, and we need your help to ensure this important bill passes on the Senate floor
The Healthy Kids Campaign is working to help pass key pieces of legislation during the 2009 session in Salem. Here's what we're working on to make Oregon a safer place for our kids:
Oregon Healthy Schools Act
The Healthy Schools Legislation aims to reduce pollutants at school to protect students and school employees. The bills come none too soon for the 73,000 children in Oregon who suffer from asthma. All children deserve healthy, clean places to learn and grow. Read more about the healthy schools legislation.
