I just got the message below from FORR pertaining to the helmet law. Maybe if this law passes, we won't have to go to Arkansas to ride without a helmet. Drop your senator a note and let him know you expect him to support this bill.

"The following is a joint release from Freedom of Road Riders® and Abate for Missouri. If you don't know HB994 is the helmet law modification bill.

Abate for Missouri and Freedom of Road Riders is asking for your help. HB994 has passed through the Senate Transportation Committee. Now we need it to be brought to the Senate floor.
We have barely over 2 weeks to make this happen. Contact your Senator. Email Â- Phone call Â- Visit with them if you happen to be in Jeff City. Ask that the bill be taken to the floor and passed. We don't want any filibusters, so if your Senator tends to do that, have a polite chat and request it not to happen. And, Please, be polite.
We'll keep you posted with information as soon as we get it.
It's here folks!! Let's work together and make it happen. Every one of you counts and everyone can make a difference.
If you don't know who your Senator is go here http://www.senate.mo.gov/llookup/leg_lookup.aspx or send a e-mail to us.
Senator District Office Capitol Phone Jack Goodman R-29 331A (573) 751-2234 Local 15 Senator
Respectfully Yours, Tony Shepherd Chairman, Abate for Missouri Chairman@abateformissouri.com
