Ask Hultgren to preserve critical funding for walking and biking

Jan 31, 2012 | by Active Trans

Do you live Illinois’s 14th Congressional District represented by U.S. House of Rep. Randy Hultgren?

If so, please consider contacting him today to urge him to preserve funding for walking and biking.

The long-awaited federal transportation bill, unfortunately, eliminates the two largest programs that fund biking and walking — Transportation Enhancements and Safe Routes to School.

Rep. Hultgren sits on the House of Representative’s Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure and can help prevent a potential disaster for active transportation throughout the nation.

Please contact him today to urge him to preserve funding for walking and biking. Constituents may call Rep. Hultgren at (202) 225-2976.

We expect a full floor vote will happen around Feb. 13, but our best hope is to get this changed while it's in committee.

Thank you!
