The bill breezed through the Senate committee.  Even an OLCC rep was there to testify in favor.  By next Thur. it should pass the Senate and move on to the House, where it should go through easily also.

The video archive is here...

This is very positive news Denny!  :)

Good picture of the guys presenting on the AHA main page.  I said, that's Gary Glass!  Great to see the AHA staff helping move this issue along.

Hard to say for sure what color shoes Denny had on.

Sometimes you have to dress for the occasion.

Otherwise you should have red Converse Chuck Taylors and a blue cooler.   ;)

If you have a witbier in your glass you would be very patriotic!

SB444 passed the OR Senate unanimously today with no debate!  On to the House!

SB 444 has been assigned to the House Business & Labor Committee.  No date for a hearing yet, but that could come at any time, so now is the time for Oregon residents to start contacting the committee members, as well as the Representatives for their districts asking them to support the bill.  See the Action Alert we just sent to Oregon AHA members: http://bit.ly/hmMJ2E.

SB 444 passed the OR House today.  All that's left is for the governor to sign it and OR will have the best homebrew law in the US!
