Transportation Bill Lawsuit
(Salem, OR) -- Oregon Secretary of State Tobias Read is being sued over the short time allowed to gather signatures to put statements in the Voter's Pamphlet concerning the transportation referendum on the May Primary. Read told legislators they were missing deadlines by delaying a bill to move the vote from November to May. The lawsuit claims the short deadline violates the Americans with Disabilities Act. It seeks an emergency hearing to consider a temporary restraining order.
