Oregon Legislature to Vote on Veterans Day for Vets

A bill giving veterans time off from their jobs to observe Veterans’ Day is on its way to the Oregon Senate for a vote.  With no discussion Thursday, a Senate committee passed Senate Bill 1.  It directs Oregon employers to provide their employees who are military veterans a paid or unpaid day off on veterans' day or an alternate day.  If the measure passes both houses of the Legislature, it heads to the Governor for signature.
