Support "Stop for Pedestrians" in committee now, Virginia
Fellow Virginia Cyclists and Pedestrians,
We're closer than ever to getting a "stop for pedestrians in crosswalks" bill passed in Virginia. The bill, SB644, is on the Transportation Committee docket for tomorrow afternoon. If we can get it through committee tomorrow it will probably pass the House and finally become law (it has already passed the Senate). If you're a constituent of a Transportation Committee member, please contact your delegate's office before 2pm tomorrow, and urge them to support the "Stop for Pedestrians in Crosswalks" bill, SB644. I've posted the info at http://www.vabike.org/sb644-stop-for-pedestrians, but for quick reference, here's the list of House Transportation Committee members: May, Chairman (Loudon) Ed Scott (Culpeper) Toscano (Charlottesville) Fralin (Roanoke) Nichols (Woodbridge) Frederick (Woodbridge) Dwight Jones (Richmond) Saxman (Staunton) Loupassi (West end Richmond & Chesterfield) Ebbin (Arlington) Carrico (SW Virginia, along the NC line) Rust (Herndon) BaCote (Newport News) Cosgrove (Chesapeake) Hugo (Centreville) Gear (Hampton) Tata (VA Beach) Marsden (Fairfax) Oder (Newport News) Valentine (Lynchburg) Brink (Arlington) If one of these is your delegate, please contact their office by 2pm tomorrow. You can find who your delegate is, and their contact information at: http://conview.state.va.us/whosmy.nsf/main?openform This is a close one that just needs a little push. With your help we can finally get this done! Matt O. |
