From Jake Helmboldt, our Virginia state bike/ped coordinator:

Senator Tom Harkin (D-IA) has introduced complete streets legislation to ensure that all users are accommodated in road design and implementation, wherever federal funds are involved. This bill needs co-sponsors and supporters, so please contact your US Senator to urge their support. For Virginia residents, the article above has live links to Senator Webb's and Senator Warner's offices.
