Weeks after being hit by a car, Rep. Bonamici presents Beaverton with $4 million check for pedestrian safety
February 3, 2023
On the evening of Jan. 13, U.S. Rep. Suzanne Bonamici was leaving a Shabbat Service for Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr hosted by Congressional Beth Israel in Northwest Portland. While crossing the street, in a crosswalk and with a green light, the congresswoman and her husband were hit by a car.
Three weeks later, Bonamici made her first public appearance in Oregon since the crash, fittingly, to deliver a $4 million check to the mayor of Beaverton for pedestrian safety improvements.
