WABA has announced some concrete actions you can take to prevent the destruction of the 15th Street bike lane. From their email:
What you can do: 

- Sign and share this petition calling on the National Park Service to leave the lanes in place.
- Join us on Monday at Noon for a rally in front of the Washington Monument.
- Help us pay for the lawyers who are working on this with us. A generous donor has offered to match up to $5,000 in contributions between now and Monday.
 
I shall have to skip Monday's ride from Glen Echo. Sorry, Jay. I hope others will join me at the rally.

*From WABA: WABA has learned that the Trump Administration will be
attempting to destroy and remove the Cherry Blossom Bike Lane on Monday,
March 23.*
 
This is the heavily used bike lane that runs across the Mall from the 14th Street
Bridge past the Jefferson Memorial and the Cherry Trees to the Holocaust
Museum and to the African-American History Museum at Constitution Avenue
and 15th Street.
 
*The District of Columbia does not support the removal of any bike lanes.
However, since this lane is on National Park Service land, it is under the
control of the Trump Administration.*
 
*This action is unwarranted and illegal. The Washington Area Bicyclist
Association will not allow it to happen, and we invite you to join us in
solidarity.*
 
*There will be a rally and demonstration at 12 noon on March 23rd at the
corner of 15th Street and Independence Avenue on the National Mall. Please
come, with or without a bicycle, scooter or wheelchair. Closest Metro
station (3 blocks) is Smithsonian.*
 
WABA members will be along the corridor all morning as well. Please help
spread the word as this was just learned today.
 
Barbara
