SALEM - The Oregon State Senate Wednesday strongly endorsed a proposal to strengthen Oregon's anti-bullying law. In a 26 to 2 vote, the Senate approved the bill and sent it to the governor's desk.
"Bullying and harassment are far too common in Oregon schools," said Dana Hepper, of Stand for Children, who testified in favor of the bill at a hearing. "This proposal will help keep children safe."
