State Senator Broadman introduces bill to legalize Kei trucks in Oregon - a small, affordable alternative to full-sized trucks

SALEM, Ore. (KTVZ) -- Sen. Anthony Broadman (D-Bend), introduced legislation Wednesday to legalize the registration and on-road use of Kei trucks in Oregon, calling them an efficient, affordable alternative to full-sized trucks.  He says Senate Bill 1213 has strong bipartisan support and is co-sponsored by Rep. Emily McIntire (R-Eagle Point), Rep. Hai Pham (D-Hillsboro & W Beaverton), and Sen.

Texas and Colorado have passed laws to protect imported Kei trucks so far this year. Soon, they could be joined by a West-coast state.
