Once again, Chris Lehman of OPB and the Northwest News Network is on top of this one.
Lehman reports on his Capitol Currents blog that the latest revival of a BPA ban died today in House Rules Committee. He says the committee chair didn’t bother bringing up HB 3703 for a vote today, so the bill missed a deadline to get out of committee.
The first attempt to protect Oregon’s children from bisphenol A made it as far as a vote on the Senate floor last week. But the tally came in at 15-15, and in the legislature, a tie counts as a defeat.
