Good News For Florida Bikers

OFF THE WIRE
Good News For Florida Bikers
I am pleased to forward this page from Southern Thunder Illustrated March 2016 issue
As some of you already know that there has been serious concern about how ABATE of Florida was using this money it received from the State of Florida in the form of Safety Grants
When ABATE of Florida was asked to open their books to myself and others they not only refused but did in my case revoke my life membership without a proper hearing.
ABATE of Florida later had to appear before the Florida Legislature to answer questions on how they were spending the safety grants.
Now the State of Florida has through the Governor suspended these payments.
The way I read this is that the funds are still available to agencies and or groups that qualify, just not any longer to ABATE of Florida
Hopefully those who read this will contact their Legislators and the Governor and THANK THEM for this action and suggest Other Ways and or Organizations for these funds to go to.
