Advocates play a crucial role in advancing bicycling legislation and promoting safe cycling infrastructure in their communities. By meeting with their legislators, advocates can educate them on important bicycling policies and share their personal experiences as cyclists. During the Iowa Bicycling Day at the Capitol, advocates will have the opportunity to meet with their legislators, discuss priority bicycling legislation, and make their voices heard
What happens during Iowa Bicycling Day at the Capitol:
This year with the BIG WIN on passing the Hands Free Law, we'll be there to thank legislators for their work on the bill. Don’t forget to join in for a group photo at the staircase (time tbd).
