Tell Congress: Make walking and biking safe!
Most of America's roads are designed for cars -- and for cars only. That doesn’t make any sense in a country where one in three people doesn’t have access to a car, and where half of all trips could be accomplished with a 20-minute bike ride.
A new bill was just introduced in Congress would jumpstart the process of transforming our transportation infrastructure to make it friendlier to bikers and walkers -- the Active Community Transportation Act (H.R. 4722). It would create a federal grant program to fund local projects aimed at improving conditions for pedestrians and cyclists.
Will you join me in asking our representatives in Congress to co-sponsor this bill? I just sent a letter to mine, and it just takes a second:

Thanks so much for your help!
