Bottle Bill Change Passes Legislature
(Salem, OR) -- Oregon stores won't have to accept bottle and can returns after 8 p.m. under a bill passed by the Legislature. Retailers say late-night returns often put employees at risk. Neighbors of the stores say it brought drug users into the areas. Stores where alternative drop sites are located could stop accepting returns at 6 p.m. The bill passed the Legislature with wide margins. It now goes to the Governor.
