Legislative Framework for Wildlife Bridges

What is happening? In 2019 Oregon passed HB 2834 (2019 | OR) and now Oregon legislators are considering HB 4130 (2022 | OR) that would fund the bridges.

Why is this important? HB 4130 will invest $7 million in strategic projects that reduce wildlife collisions across the state. 

How will this be important? More people means more displaced wildlife that would benefit from wildlife bridges.
