T.A. Bulletin
Week of June 11, 2001

Your Advocacy Action Needed
Speed Cams Opposed
T.A.’s Speed Camera legislation is being held up by legislative leaders in the NY State Assembly. Their reason --- fear of intruding on the privacy of speeders.

Contact your assemblymember and tell them to support AO7355 and stand-up for safe streets for cyclists and pedestrians. Writing is best but calling, emailing, faxing are also great.

Find your assemblymember at: www.cmap.nypirg.org
