Congress to Decide Fate of Bike Funding: Congress is currently debating the massive transportation bill, which includes funding for bicycling and pedestrian facilities. Indications are that these programs could be entirely gutted. Our Senator is on the committee that can stop this.  Take Action Now! Please take a minute before Monday and call Senator Menendez's office in support of dedicated funding for bicycling and walking programs. Leave a message if you don't reach a staffer — Monday close of business will be too late! Below is an easy script. Senator Robert Menendez: 202.224.4744 Hello! I am (Name, Address, City). I am calling to ask for Senator Menendez's support of dedicated funding for bicycling and walking in the transportation reauthorization.  Thank you, in advance, for supporting cycling!!
