Join Us For Bike Lobbying In D.C. On March 6th

Get your lobby on! Join us in Washington DC for the National Bike Summit's Lobby Day on Wednesday, March 6th.

You don't have to attend the National Bike Summit to participate in this Lobby Day, but we do ask that you let us know you're coming by signing up here:

What is involved? Travelling down to Washington DC to meet with your elected officials and stress to them the importance of supporting biking and walking programs, funding, and trail projects.

We cannot provide you with transportation, but we can let you know who else is travelling so you can find someone to carpool with. Once we have appointments arranged with the various senators and representatives, we'll share those meeting dates and times.

This year, the chairman of the House Transportation Committee is Congressman Bill Shuster (PA-9), so the PA delegation is even more important than ever! We need to send the message loud and clear that bicycling is good for Pennsylvania and New Jersey's economy. Please join us!
