Background checks passed by Oregon Legislature! [View all]
At last!! As Rachel Maddow happily reported on yesterday's show, Oregon legisators have passed SB 941, expanding gun background checks, and it's on the way to Governor Brown for signature. Congratulations to all who supported this law, and special thanks to the legislators who voted for it. Needless to say, not a single republican voted in favor, but our Democratic majority prevailed. Present and future Oregonians will be forever grateful!
Cheers--and a big round of applause! 
I recommend the website, CeasefireOregon.org. This group worked hard advocating for 941. They did good!
