Tell Lawmakers to Invest in Safe, Modern Transportation Infrastructure!
Time Required: Roughly 10 minutes
The long-awaited transportation bill, HB
2025, has finally been
published! For a quick overview of this bill, check out the Transportation
Reinvestment Package fact sheet.
Based on discussion within the Transportation
Reinvestment Committee, we can
expect a push from some legislators to reduce funding. This means that
funding for transit and active transportation, among other things, may be
on the chopping block. It's important for legislators to feel that
they have the backing of their constituents in order to stand up for much
needed modernization and investments in our transportation system.
Action: Submit testimony and/or email you legislators to share your support for the increased funding in HB 2025 and for the investment in a safe transportation for all users, including transit and active transportation users. Unique testimony, rather than form letters, is always much more impactful, but any email in support is better than none.
