Virtual Cyclists in Suits, Texas Bike Lobby Day – March 22, 2021
3 Hour Lobby Day Training – March 21, 2021 from 2 – 5pm CDT
Register for Lobby Day
2021 brings us opportunities to make Texas a great place to ride a bike, and a key part of that is meeting with our legislators virtually on Texas bike lobby day, March 22. Your voice is crucial to keeping lawmakers focused on bicycle access, education, and safety.
Due to the ongoing pandemic, Cyclists in Suits is an online-only event for 2021. Since there is no need to travel to Austin, we anticipate more folks than ever will be able to participate. Everyone who rides a bike in Texas is encouraged to attend, including teens—now is a great time to introduce young Texans to participating in our democracy. Experience in advocacy is not required. Please plan to attend the training session on March 21 from 2 5pm CDT, where you will have time to practice and hear tips from folks who’ve done it before.
In the past, we’ve caught some bad bills and changed legislators’ minds with these bike lobby day meetings. Your voice matters!
Register today for Cyclists in Suits, Texas Bike Lobby Day so that we can continue to advance safe biking and walking in Texas.
