To: James Lamm <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> [http://ffs.capwiz.com/lab/images/lab_advocacy_alert_header.gif] Ask Your Representative to Preserve Biking and Walking <http://capwiz.com/lab/utr/1/FNCIRGNFCW/GHNERGPBDO/7842058556> Take Action! Transportation Committee votes on biking and walking funding next week On Thursday, February 2, we expect the House Transportation Committee to vote on the American Energy and Infrastructure Jobs Act, a bill that eliminates crucial funds for biking and walking. As a Member of the Committee, your representative is in a key position to save dedicated funding for biking and walking. Please contact them today and ask them to vote to preserve biking and walking. The American Energy and Infrastructure Jobs Act, the long awaited multi year Transportation bill, eliminates the two largest programs that fund biking and walking infrastructure—Transportation Enhancements and Safe Routes to School. Without these programs, communities all over the country will lose resources to build the sidewalks, crosswalks, and bikeways that make biking and walking safe and accessible in your community. We can’t let that happen. That’s why we’re working to introduce an amendment that will preserve funding for biking and walking. During Thursday’s vote, your representative could be the key to making sure that this amendment passes in the Transportation Committee. Will you contact them today to ask that they vote to preserve funding for biking and walking in the transportation bill? Tell them: * Biking and walking make up 12 percent of all trips, but only 1.5 percent of federal funding. * Two out of three pedestrian deaths take place on roads built with federal funding. Ensuring funds for sidewalks, crosswalks, and bikeways help end preventable deaths and make roads safer for everyone. * When town centers are biking and walking friendly, business and economic development improves. Thank you for all that you do to keep bicycling and walking safe and accessible.
