FW: Transportation for the 21st Century   Message List  
Reply | Forward Message #320 of 373 |
Hi Gang.
 
Here's a chance to make yourself heard in an easy way.  After you read the story, if you want to put your 2 cents in, click on the "Take Action!" link near the top right of the below message.  You'll be asked for your zip code, which will be used to find your representative.  Then a blank message will be generated, with pre-designed text on the right side that you select by clicking on the little red arrows.  Fill in your name, etc., and click on "submit".  It's easier than it sounds.  Since over 180 people will see this email, I'd like to think that this can at least have some impact.
 
Regards,
George.

 
Transportation for the 21st Century
 

Federal Transportation Authorization
Prioritizing biking and walking in our transportation system
 
 
Congress is preparing to draft legislation that will define our national transportation system for the next 6 years. We need your help to ensure that bicycling is a part of that system, a transportation system for the 21st century.  
 
Representative Earl Blumenauer (D-OR), co-chair of the Congressional Bike Caucus is circulating a "Dear Colleague" letter to his fellow Bike Caucus Members respectfully asking them to support increased federal support for establishing a truly multi-modal national transportation policy that better integrates bicycling and walking into our nation's transportation system.
 
We are thankful for Congressman Blumenauer's efforts on behalf of cyclists nationwide and urge you to contact your Representative, who is on the Congressional Bike Caucus, to ask them to join Mr. Blumenauer and lend their voice to this important bike-partisan debate.
 
Please contact your Congressional Representative today to urge them to sign on to Representative Blumenauer's "Dear Colleague" Letter.
