[Bikies] We Win on Enhancements!

September 4, 2003
Hi folks
Yahoo! Moments ago, the House of Representatives voted to restore funding
for the Transportation Enhancements program in the 2004 Transportation
Appropriations bill with over a hundred Republicans voting yes! The
bi-partisan effort was led by Representatives Petri (R-WI) and Olver
(D-MA).
Huge thanks to everyone who wrote letters, made calls and let Congress
know that the Enhancements program was important. Your voice was heard!
This victory not only restores $600 million in dedicated funding for 2004,
it puts the bicycle and pedestrian community on strong footing for the
bigger battle over the reauthorization of TEA-21, the 6 year
transportation funding bill.

I am THRILLED!
