New Mexico Cyclists:

Here is a possible solution to the conundrum of the 5 Foot to Pass Bill.
Contact Gov. Grisham and ask her to support HB 192, BUT to please line-item veto the phrase that requires cyclists to ride any existing side-path.  Side-paths cost money, so this portion of the bill may be considered a budget item.  (She can only line-item veto budget items). If Republican Senators can write in a nasty amendment at the 11th hour, maybe we can do the like.

Subject: [NMCycling] HB192. Request to Veto

 

I called the Governor's office today at 1-505-476-2200.  Someone else had already called about HB192 this morning.  

 

It didn't take long, they just want to know which bill and what your opinion is; you don't have to justify your position.

 

Calls may get more attention than emails!  Give it a try.
