[DB!-Announce] Help prioritize biking and walking in our transportation system

[Davis Bicycles Announcements]

Congress is preparing to draft legislation that will define our national
transportation system for the next 6 years. We need your help to ensure that
bicycling is a part of that system, a transportation system for the 21st
century.

Representative Earl Blumenauer (D-OR), co-chair of the Congressional Bike
Caucus, is circulating a "Dear Colleague"
letter<http://www.bikeleague.org/programs/bikeadvocacy/blumenauer_letter.pdf>to
his fellow Bike Caucus Members respectfully asking them to support
increased federal support for establishing a truly multi-modal national
transportation policy that better integrates bicycling and walking into our
nation's transportation system.

We are thankful for Congressman Blumenauer's efforts on behalf of cyclists
nationwide and urge you to contact our Representative, Mike Thompson, who is
on the Congressional Bike Caucus, to ask him to join Mr. Blumenauer and lend
his voice to this important bike-partisan debate.

Please contact Representative Thompson
today<http://capwiz.com/lab/issues/alert/?alertid=13371566&type=TA>to
urge him to sign on to Representative Blumenauer's "Dear Colleague"
Letter.

Thanks,

   Leo Rainer
