Congratulations to our partners at PCUN for their work to win Oregon’s “Safe Roads Bill” (SB 833), granting countless undocumented immigrants access to driver’s cards and insurance. Four years ago, Oregon ceased issuing driver’s licenses to undocumented immigrants and SB 833’s passage marks a victory for a broad coalition of bipartisan legislators, civic leaders, and community organizations.

The bill “directs Department of Transportation to issue a driver card to any applicant who does not provide proof of legal presence in United States but otherwise has complied with all requirements and has resided in Oregon more than one year.”

We look forward to working with PCUN and other partners across the country to drive forward state-based policies that provide greater equality and inclusion for immigrants.
