News By Bike: Links for You to Read (June 5)

From BikeTexas:

We told you earlier this week about an attack on bike/ped funding in Congress. The vote on the transportation bill is now postponed until June 9. We’re keeping an eye on the bills and in communication with our friends at the League of American Bicyclists and will share any updates.

Will you be in Austin on June 19? Join us for CLIPS: Beer and Film at the Long Center. Want to volunteer at CLIPS? See all volunteer opportunities and sign up here.
