Once in a great while, Congress does something that makes sense.
This is a resolution to start a national bicycle strategy, not a law, but it's a start.
What most people still need to learn is that transportation involves many modes, including feet, bicycles, wheelchairs, cars, trains, planes, and boats. Not all of these are suitable for all communities, but as a whole, we need to deemphasize cars as the dominant transportation mode for all purposes. (This has been my rant for the day.)

Now if only they'd work on improving things for those of us who walk.
You mean actually fixing broken sidewalks, regrading streets so that rainwater doesn't pond at the corners, and getting utility poles out of the middle of the sidewalks? If they don't do it in Las Cruces, it's not gonna happen in Socorro. Sorry, kiddo.
Sigh. How about, y'know, actually putting in some sidewalks at all in some spots? No? Come on, it's not like I'm asking for, oh, streetlights or anything...
Sigh.
