Tell us your legislative priorities!

Sep 28, 2010 | by Active Trans

Active Trans is planning its 2011 legislative agenda and we want your input before we head to Springfield to advocate on your behalf. As a regular cyclist, pedestrian and/or transit rider, your expert opinion can help us identify transportation priorities for our communities. By attending the Active Trans Member Forum on the Legislative Agenda and taking the Active Trans Legislative Survey, you can help inform both our long-term direction as well as our planning for next year. Please take our legislative survey today and then join us for a special member forum Oct. 13 to share your thoughts and learn more about our legislative work.
