Talking Points for a phone call or in person meeting:

  • I would like the Congressman or Congresswoman to consider co-sponsoring H. Res 255

  • This is a bipartisan resolution that addresses the profiling of motorcyclists. It currently has over 120 co-sponsors.

  • There 12 Representatives from California already listed as cosponsors.

  • The resolution simply asks that law enforcement and the motorcycle community work together and communicate about the issue of profiling.

  • The Senate unanimously passed an identical version of this resolution in 2018.

  • There are over 158,000 registered motorcycles in Los Angeles County (Only use for Napolitano, Bass, and Lieu)

  • There are over 62,000 registered motorcycles in Orange County (Only Use for Correa)

  • This is an important issue to all motorcyclists nationwide.

  • Ask if you can email them a one-page background on the resolution.

  • Thank them for their time.
