From
BikeTexas URGENT!!!!!!!!!
Dear Fellow Texas Cyclists,
Every cyclist in Texas must call Governor Perry today and insist that he allow SB 488 to pass!
The
governor mistakenly thinks that the bill puts all of the responsibility on the
motorist. There might be time to save the bill if you hurry and make the
calls.
This is the most important call we have ever asked you to make.
Our lives depend on it.
BikeTexas was notified at 12:30 pm CST that
Governor Perry plans to veto the Safe Passing Bill. This veto can happen within
the next couple of hours TODAY. We need every cyclist in Texas to call NOW and
tell the Governor to pass SB 488. More than 1000 vulnerable road users in Texas
die every year. This bill will save lives!
You must give the bill
number. (SB488)
CALL both phone NUMBERS
(512)463-4375
(512)
463-2000 Governor's main switchboard until 5pm
Let's Light Up The
Grassroots.
CALL NOW!!
