First let me start by apologizing for my writing and/or spelling
but I am exhausted. Next let me thank all who showed up and packed the
committee room today. Session ran long but our folks hung in and when it
came time for our bill to be heard the room was packed with dedicated
motorcyclists. I am convinced that our presence, coupled with the
numerous emails, is what helped us secure a vote of 15-6 to move HB97 on to the
floor of the House of Delegates. So take a minute to pat yourselves on
the back and then roll up your sleeves. It is time to get back to
work. Below are the email addresses of every member of the House of
Delegates. Let’s flood their email boxes with emails in support of
HB97. If our calculations are correct it will come up for a vote on
Thursday so it is important that we voice our opinion now. Thank you
again for all who took their time to come and sit through committee. It
truly made a difference. Thank you also to those who could not make it
but took the time to send emails and convinced your neighbors and friends to do
the same. Let’s give this another push and get it through the House and
on to the Senate.
On another note. HB 187 (Motorcycle Only Checkpoints) is
being heard in subcommittee tommorow morining at 7:00 a.m. Jim, Tom and I
will be there to speak on the bill and will report the results. As
promised the addresses of the full house are listed below:
