Calling all who breathe. Call your State Senator!

Just as we are about to take to the streets to celebrate science, the Oregon Legislature is about to reject it.

In a last-minute move, the Senate Committee on Environment and Natural Resources stripped SB 1008 “Clean Engines, Clean Air Act” of nearly every feature that would have ensured clean engines—and restored clean air—to our state.

They also stripped any mention of the scientific facts on how diesel pollution acts on the body to rob people of health, life and livelihoodsAnd then they passed this shell of a bill along to the Senate Rules Committee.
