Missouri bicyclists, pedestrians, and trail users,
Thanks to your efforts in contacting our U.S. Senators, the effort to
eliminate the largest single source of bicycle and pedestrian funding
in the U.S. has been soundly defeated.
In Missouri, Senator McCaskill voted in support of bike/ped funding
and Senator Blunt disappointed by voting to eliminate the funding.
Please take a moment now to contact those senators again.
Senator McCaskill--to say THANK YOU for her support:

Senator Blunt--to (politely and persuasively) let him know how
disappointed you are in his vote, and you hope he will do better next time:

Thank you! When you speak up in support of bicycling, walking, and
trails, it really does make a difference!
