Letter from
Charles Umbenhauer-urging continued vigilance about the helmet law and right
to choose; 204 motorcycle fatalities in 2008 a 14% reduction from 2008,
probably a combination of factors contributed to the reduction, possible
including our Motorcycle awareness signs; Jan 2011 could mark a change in
legislative stands on the helmet law as there can be many changes in office,
Charles has 2 suggestions 1) know your local Representatives and Senators
well! 2) Show up at Lobby Day, Tuesday 4:20, call your state offices now to
let them know you’re coming; more details in the April Between the Lines;
Steen is planning to go to Lobby Day, contact him if you want to ride as a
group |
