Earlier this year Oregon's legislature passed and the Governor signed a

comprehensive anti-discrimination bill that outlaws discrimination based on sexual orientation in employment, housing, public accommodation, and public education.

Today we found out that the opponents of these You have protection from discrimination at work. [0]You have protection from discrimination at work.basic rights failed to collect enough signatures to refer the new law to the ballot. This is great news for Oregon and we are thrilled that the privileges
Portland
residents have enjoyed for over 16 years are being extended to Oregonians throughout the state.

Basic Rights Oregon [1] deserves everyone's gratitude and support. The organization has worked tirelessly to protect the freedoms that heterosexuals have been given as a matter of right.
