Oregon Governor Vetoes Lane-Sharing Bill
L
ane sharing in Oregon was
one step closer to becoming
a reality after the Oregon House
of Representatives approved
Senate Bill 574 with a vote of 42
to 14 on May 17. The House vote
occurred after the Oregon Sen-
ate passed the bill in early May
with wide bipartisan support.
The passage marks nearly seven
years of advocacy work by local
Oregon motorcycle organizations
and the AMA to educate lawmak-
ers on the bill's safety, traffic and
environmental benefits.
Despite bipartisan support,
however, Gov. Kate Brown
vetoed the bill on May 26, cit-
ing her concerns about safety.
Although the Legislature could
still override that veto with a two-
thirds vote in both chambers, it's
highly unlikely.
"The AMA is disappointed in
Governor Brown for ignoring
the will of the Legislature, which
passed this bill with broad sup-
port," said the AMA's Director of
Government Relations Michael
Sayre. "Despite a veto, we'd like
to congratulate advocates in the
state who've lobbied for years
to get this bill to the Governor's
desk, which is farther than lane-
filtering legislation has ever gone
in Oregon, and the AMA plans
to continue to work with Oregon
advocates to overcome this final
hurdle in the future."
