Hi Bike Board,
Just an update from the Bill status tracker on the bicycle bill, HB 4304. It appears the bill passed the house and moved to the senate, where today it was sent to the senate judiciary committee.

Here’s the link again to the process a bill goes through to become law. Looks like it will get sent to another committee before popping back up again for readings. The clock is ticking on it now since the session ends on March 8th.

If you would still like to support the bill in its amended state (see Frank’s email to the BB on 2/19/14), here’s a list of senate judiciary members for phone calls.
