Oregon lawmakers on Wednesday voted to end a prohibition on self-serve gas that’s been in place since 1951.

House Bill 2426 would require gas stations to staff at least half of their open pumps for people who want assistance. But it would allow other pumps to be open for self-service.

It seems like a good compromise. Some jobs still exist and those who want to can pump their own.
