League of American Bicyclists Donation Information
Congress is talking about passing a $500-700 billion economic stimulus package bill that could include over $100 billion in transportation and infrastructure funding. Unless we speak up, these funds will go overwhelmingly to road projects: the same unbalanced strategy that has created our existing transportation problems. Help the League continue to advocate for explicit funding for non-motorized projects in the upcoming economic recovery package. Funding active transportation is a cost-effective investment that creates jobs and leads to healthier people, stronger communities, decreased oil dependency, and reduced climate change emissions.
