It's a great chance to get the administration on board with addressing a glaring problem with our streets. We'll be delivering all the signatures to the "Demand Safer Streets!" petition in that meeting - including yours! - but we need 1,000 more signatures by midnight tomorrow to really make a big impression. <http://org2.democracyinaction.org/dia/track.jsp?v=2&c=JiQ3j%2FeuhIsmj5621VL GREOsu%2B9onah4> You can help by asking your friends to sign on too. It's easy - just visit our site to send an online postcard that will get their attention. I've included an example of the postcard below.

Thank you again for helping to make our streets safer. Sincerely, Ilana Preuss National Outreach Director Transportation for America ------ SAMPLE POSTCARD ------ If a jumbo jet filled with 400 passengers dropped from the sky every month, you can bet it would get serious federal attention. Well, that's about many pedestrians are killed on U.S. streets every month - but until now it hasn't gotten nearly the attention it deserves. The good news is that we can fight the problem at the root with strong leadership and more resources from the White House for "Complete Streets" - policies that will ensure that streets are designed with all road users in mind, not just motorists. Join me in asking U.S. Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood to make safer streets a priority! http://action.smartgrowthamerica.org/t/3224/petition.jsp?petition_KEY=570 <http://org2.democracyinaction.org/dia/track.jsp?v=2&c=aq%2Ba%2F%2Bs%2BaFz%2 FJzpxpkTGVkOsu%2B9onah4> --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "NC Active Transportation Alliance" group.
