20 MAY 2009: Contact your congressman to prioritize bicycling and walking in federal transportation funding
posted by Brent Hugh at 5/20/2009 11:09:00 AM
Congress is writing a bill that will define our national transportation system for the next 6 years and we need your help to make sure that your Member of Congress weighs in on the transportation bill to support bicycling and walking.
Representative Daniel Lipinski (D, IL) is circulating a "Dear Colleague" letter (PDF file) proposing that the upcoming Transportation Bill, which is currently being drafted by the House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee (T&I), promotes and funds alternate transportation options. Representative Lipinski is asking his colleagues in the House of Representatives to join him in a call for increased federal funding for bicycling and pedestrian programs. We are thankful for Congressman Lipinski's efforts on behalf of cyclists nationwide and urge you to contact your Representative to ask them to join Mr. Lipinski and lend their voice to this important debate. Please click here to contact your Representative's office today and urge them to sign onto Congressman Lipinski's policy letter today.
