Transportation Lobby Day
Tuesday, February 6, 2007 – all day
110 11th Ave SE
(11th and Capitol Way)

Join with the Bicycle Alliance of Washington, Transportation Choices, Sierra Club, Feet First, and many other non-profits for the first annual healthy, transportation Lobby Day.  (The specifics of the day will be posted at  http://www.bicyclealliance.org in early January.)
Our priorities include:
1)  Increased funding and policies to support bike lanes and sidewalks – a complete streets umbrella package.  We’ll pursue education and legislation opportunities.
2)  Educate legislators about carbon assessments and greenhouse gases.
3)  Mobility education.  Change drivers’ education to include bicycle, pedestrian and transit education. 
4)  Work to revise State transportation goals with education and legislation.
Additionally we'll support cell phone legislation.  We'll also be there to oppose any “bad” bills and support other legislation as needed.
