This is the bill sponsored by a legislator that was angry that a group
of road cyclists were operating on a roadway instead of a sidewalk
path. I have placed the Real-Audio file of the opening remarks and
bill description

Republicans Peddle Anti-Bike Rider Legislation
Friends,
Please find attached an audio file, from the start of debate
on Senate File 2032. After Senator Putney did opening
comments, I deferred on the bill to file more amendments.
The debate will start again tomorrow probably in the
morning. If you have more amendment ideas send them to me.
You can listen to live debate from the Senate when we are in
session at www.legis.state.ia.us
Thanks to everyone for all the amendment ideas and help.
Regards,
Joe

bicycling bill to be debated - TODAY March 8, 2004
Dear Friends,
The Iowa Senate will take up debate this afternoon on Senate
File 2032. This bill will restrict bicycles on certain Iowa
divided highways.
I am opposed to this bill and will be offering amendments in
an attempt to kill
it. I am not certain that this strategy is going to work.
The Republicans seem determined to take the rights of
cyclists away. This bill, if it passes, will make
Iowa less safe for all cyclists on any state or
county highway.
So, I encourage each of you to contact your own senator
IMMEDIATELY. You can find your senator's e-mail at
www.legis.state.ia.us For other interested persons, please
e-mail Senate Majority Leader Iverson at
Stewart.Iverson@l...
When the bill gets called up for debate, I intend to defer
on it in order to prepare more amendments. So, the debate
will go on tomorrow and later this week.
Thank you for your help.

PS. I send out an interesting, brief, periodic legislative
email newsletter. Let me know if you would like to
receive it.
