I am pro-bicycling. SOme of you might know that already, but I am a fan of cycling for exercise and commuting. Bike paths and bike lanes are very good, positive things.
BUT THIS HAS NO PLACE IN NATIONAL POLITICS!!!!!
Definitely Local communities, and perhaps state level initiatives, have a place in addressing an issue like this -- if more important matters are being handled. But not US lawmakers -- EVER!!!
Thank you for the space to vent
