Action Alert!
Dear Bikies,
I was checking our the LAB web site
www.bikeleague.org
and I found this:
The US DOT is preparing for the reauthorization of the federal
transportation bill and is seeking feedback from you! Bicycling
projects have received over $2 billion in federal support since 1991 and
are currently eligible to receive support under several programs in the
current legislation.
The federal transportation bill -- referred to as ISTEA in 1991, TEA-21
in 1998, and its renewal now labeled TEA-3 - authorizes over $200
billion in support for transportation.
This is the first time that US DOT is providing an Internet-based site
for individuals to express their opinions and offer suggestions.

If you haven't done so already, please go to the US DOT web site (above)
and tell them that you want Bicycle-Friendly Transportation Systems with
the TEA-3 money. Hey, it can't hurt?
Thanks,
Kathy Schramm
